Abstract

I present archival data of the dipping LMXB systems, XB 1916–053, XB 1323–619, X 1624–490, and 4U 1746–371 obtained by the ISGRI and JEM‐X detectors on‐board the INTEGRAL Observatory. The spectral parameters derived from the fits to the data are consistent with hot coronal regions in these systems where the electron temperatures are in a range 4.9–18.8 keV with the exception of XB 1323‐62 having an unbounded temperature. The optical depth to Compton scattering, τ is low and consistent with electron densities ne
