Forced Oscillations in Fluid Tori and Quasi–Periodic Oscillations
The kilo-Hertz Quasi–Periodic Oscillations in X–ray binaries could originate within the accretion flow, and be a signature of non–linear fluid oscillations and mode coupling in strong gravity. The possibility to decipher these systems will impact our knowledge of fundamental parameters such as the neutron star mass, radius, and spin. Thus they offer the possibility to constrain the nuclear equa...
متن کاملOn the high coherence of kilo-Hz Quasi-Periodic Oscillations
We have carried out a systematic study of the properties of the kilo-Hertz quasiperiodic oscillations (QPO) observed in the X-ray emission of the neutron star lowmass X-ray binary 4U1608-52, using archival data obtained with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. We have investigated the quality factor, Q, of the oscillations (defined as the ratio, ν/∆ν, of the frequency ν of the QPO peak to its full...
متن کاملPeriodic Oscillations in the Analysis of Algorithms and Their Cancellations
A large number of results in analysis of algorithms contain fluctuations. A typical result might read “The expected number of . . . for large n behaves like log2 n + constant + delta(log2 n), where delta(x) is a periodic function of period one and mean zero.” Examples include various trie parameters, approximate counting, probabilistic counting, radix exchange sort, leader election, skip lists,...
متن کاملModels of Kilohertz Quasi-Periodic Brightness Oscillations
The remarkable discovery of kilohertz quasi-periodic brightness oscillations (QPOs) in the accretion-powered emission from some sixteen neutron-star low-mass Xray binary systems has led to much speculation about and theoretical modeling of the origin of these oscillations. It has also led to intense study of the implications that these QPOs have for the properties of neutron stars and of the ac...
متن کاملQuasi-periodic Oscillations from Magnetorotational Turbulence
Quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the X-ray lightcurves of accreting neutron star and black hole binaries have been widely interpreted as being due to standing wave modes in accretion disks. These disks are thought to be highly turbulent due to the magnetorotational instability (MRI). We study wave excitation by MRI turbulence in the shearing box geometry. We demonstrate that axisymmetric s...
