Abstract

We present here the computer model of the distribution of the luminosity, produced by old isolated neutron stars and black holes accreting from the interstellar medium in the Galaxy in R-Z plane. We show, that the luminosity distributions have a torus-like structure, with the maximum at ≈ 5-6 kpc.
