Letter to the Editor Correlation between variability time scale and X-ray spectral index in AGN
We have analysed EXOSAT ME X-ray light curves of a sample of AGN assuming a stochastic process in these sources. The result is a significant anti-correlation between the relaxation timescale τ , derived from this stochastic model fit, and the photon index Γ of the X-ray spectrum. This establishes for the first time a relationship between variability properties and spectral properties of the emi...
متن کاملThe Correlation between Cigarette Smoking and Salivary Flow Rate
Background and aim: Side effects of cigarette smoking are among the major concerns. These complications can adversely affect the oral environment. Since reduced salivary flow rate increases the incidence of tooth decay and other dental and oral problems, the present research aimed to investigate the relationship between cigarette smoking and salivary flow rate. Materials and Methods: In this h...
متن کاملcorrelation between human development index and infant mortality rate worldwide
conclusions human development index is one of the best indicators and predictors to perceive healthcare inequities. worldwide improvement of these indicators, especially the education level, might promote infant life expectancy and decrease infant mortality. background infant mortality rate (per 1000 live births) is a vital index to monitor the standard of health and social inequality which is ...
متن کاملerosion and accretion index for kuwaiti coast
assessment of long term erosion and accretion rate of the coastal area is essential for selectionof different types of coastal structures. for example, it is not advisable to develop housing infrastructure onthe coast, which is historically eroding. similarly it is not preferable to select an accreting site for theconstruction of a port in order to avoid annual maintenance dredging after constr...
متن کاملThe Seyfert AGN RX J0136.9-3510 and the Spectral State of Super Eddington Accretion Flows
We have carried out a survey of long 50ks XMM-Newton observations of a sample of bright, variable AGN. We found a distinctive energy dependence of the variability in RXJ0136.9-3510 where the fractional variability increases from 0.3 to 2 keV, and then remains constant. This is in sharp contrast to other AGN where the X-ray variability is either flat or falling with energy, sometimes with a peak...
