High-Mass X-ray Binaries in Milky way/Andromeda type Galaxies

High-Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs) are systems composed of a massive star and a compact object (neutron star or black hole). Understanding their properties in the context of their host galaxies is crucial for unraveling their evolutionary history and contribution as progenitors of gravitational wave sources. Here we combine the stellar evolution synthesis code SEVN with the Milky way/Andromeda type galaxies catalogues from IllustrisTNG50 to model the formation and evolution of HMXBs within their host galaxies. In this talk, we present our preliminary results on the HMXB properties such as the mass of the compact object and companion star and their luminosity distributions and compare them with observations of HMXBs in the Galaxy. Finally, we will discuss how these findings can be extended to other galaxy populations in the future.
