An Apparent Hard X-ray Decline of CH Cygni
CH Cygni is a symbiotic star consisting of an M giant and an accreting white dwarf, which is known to be a highly variable X-ray source with a complex, two-component, spectra. Here we report on two Suzaku observations of CH Cyg, taken in 2006 January and May, during which the system was seen to be in a soft X-ray bright, hard X-ray faint state. Based on the extraordinary strength of the 6.4 keV...
متن کاملCh Cygni. Ii. Optical Flickering from an Unstable Disk
CHCygni began producing rapid, stochastic optical variations with the onset of symbiotic activity in 1963. We use changes in this flickering between 1997 and 2000 to diagnose the state of the accretion disk during this time. In the 1998 high state, the luminosity of the B-band flickering component was typically more than 20 times higher than in the 1997 and 2000 low states. Therefore, the physi...
متن کاملCh Cygni. I. Observational Evidence for a Disk-jet Connection
We investigate the role of accretion in the production of jets in the symbiotic star CHCygni. Assuming that the rapid stochastic optical variations in CH Cygni come from the accretion disk, as in cataclysmic variables, we use changes in this flickering to diagnose the state of the disk in 1997. At that time, CH Cygni dropped to a very low optical state, and Karovska et al. report that a radio j...

متن کاملThe Optical Spectroscopic Evolution of V1974 Cygni (nova Cygni 1992)
Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT Optical observations of nova V1974 Cygni (Cygni 1992), spanning a 4 year period, have been used to study its spectroscopic evolution. The data cover a wavelength range from ∼ 3200 − 8000Å and follows the nebular evolutionary phase of the ejecta. We have modeled the integrated fluxes by means of the photoionization code CLOUDY. The models were run at a fixed ab...
