                    Caption: Figure 3.
Example binary X-ray light curves, with two periods and phasing as in the lower row of Figure 2. J1959+2048 is a powerful black widow with a weak companion wind (low β). PSR J2129−0429 is a low-power redback undergoing qRLOF (likely high β). These can be compared with the first and last panels of the bottom row of Figure 2.
