Abstract
In contrast to white dwarfs, neutron stars with near companions can get surrounded by massive accretion disks when their donor stars transfer matter at a greater-than-Eddington rate for sufficiently long. When the disk gets massive, the system will successively pass through the stages of super-Eddington (SES) and/or supersoft (SSS), and end up as a black-hole candidate (BHC).
