Resumen
We studied the time lags and the coherence of
the X-ray light curves of the neutron star low
mass X-ray binaries 4U 1608–52 and 4U 1636–
53. These quantities are frequency-dependent
measures of the time or phase delay and of
the degree of linear correlation between two
X-ray light curves in two different energies
bands; they encode information about the size
and geometry of the medium that produces
them.
