A New Simple Model for High Frequency Quasi Periodic Oscillations in Black Hole Candidates
Observations of X-ray emissions from binary systems have long since been considered important tools to test General Relativity in strong-field regimes. The high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (HFQPOs) observed in binaries containing a black hole candidate, in particular, have been proposed as a means to measure more directly the black hole properties such as its mass and spin. Numerous m...
متن کاملThe Abc of Low-frequency Quasi-periodic Oscillations in Black-hole Candidates: Analogies with Z-sources
Three main types of low-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (LFQPOs) have been observed in Black Hole Candidates. We re-analyzed RXTE data of the bright systems XTE J1859+226, XTE J1550-564 and GX 339-4, which show all three of them. We review the main properties of these LFQPOs and show that they follow a well-defined correlation in a fractional rms vs. softness diagram. We show that the fre...
متن کاملLow Frequency Quasi-periodic Oscillations in Low Mass X-ray Binaries and Galactic Black Hole Candidates
We consider the inner regions of accretion disks surrounding black holes and neutron stars and investigate the nonlinear time dependent evolution of thermal-viscous instabilities. The viscous stress is assumed to be proportional to the gas pressure with the viscosity parameter formulated as α = min[α0(h/r) , αmax], where h is the local scale height, r is the distance from the central compact ob...
متن کاملDiscovery of High-Frequency Quasi-periodic Oscillations in the Black Hole Candidate XTE J1859+226.
We report the discovery of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) at roughly 187 and 150 Hz in the X-ray intensity of X-ray nova XTE J1859+226. The source was observed during a recent outburst with the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer. Besides these high-frequency QPOs, we have also detected QPOs (and sometimes their harmonics) at 6-7 Hz and significant broadband variability at low frequencies. These pr...
متن کاملPhase Lags of Quasi-periodic Oscillations in Microquasar Grs 19151105
I report the discovery of hard X-ray phase lags associated with the famous 67 Hz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in microquasar GRS 19151105. The QPO is seen on multiple occasions. For this investigation, I have chosen one particular observation when the oscillation is the strongest. The measured hard lags show strong energy dependence. With respect to the 2–2.5 keV band, the phase lag increas...
