چکیده

Recent X-ray observations of microquasars and Seyfert galaxies reveal the broad emission lines in their spectra, which can arise in the innermost parts of accretion disks. Simulation indicates that at low inclination angle the line is registered by distant observer with characteristic two-peak profile. However, at high inclination angles (> 85 •) two additional peaks arise. This phenomenon was discovered by Matt, Perola & Stella (1993) using the Schwarzschild black hole metric to analyze such effect. They assumed that the effect is applicable to a Kerr metric far beyond of a range of parameters that they exploited. We check and confirm their hypothesis about such structure of the spectral line shape for a Kerr metric case. We use no astrophysical assumptions about physical structure of the emission region except assumption that the region should be narrow enough. Positions and heights of these extra peaks drastically depends on both the radial coordinate of the emitting region (circular hot spot) and the inclination angle. We find that best conditions to observe this effect are realized at θ > 85 • and r > 5rg and may exist in microquasars or low-mass black holes in X-ray binary systems, because there is some precession (and nutation of accretion disks) with not very long time periods (see, for example, SS433 binary system). The line profiles for different inclination angles and radial coordinates are presented. To analyze an influence of disk models on the spectral line shapes we simulate the line profiles for Shakura – Sunyaev disk model for accretion disks with the high inclination.

Comptonization signatures in the rapid aperiodic variability of Galactic Black-Hole Candidates

We investigate the effect of inverse-Compton scattering of flares of soft radiation in different geometries of a hot, Comptonizing region and a colder accretion disk around a solar-mass black hole. The photon-energy dependent light curves, their Fourier transforms, power spectra and Fourier-period dependent time lags of hard photons with respect to softer photons are discussed. On the basis of ...

We analyze RXTE/PCA observations of the black hole candidate and galactic superluminal source GRO J1655–40 during its recent outburst. We show that during its decay to quiescence, GRO J1655–40 goes through the high, intermediate, and low state (and that at the beginning of its decay it might have even shown signatures of a very high state), just like other black hole candidates. This is the fir...

Signatures of black hole spin in galaxy evolution

We explore the connection between black hole spin and AGN power by addressing the consequences underlying the assumption in the recent literature that the gap region between accretion disks and black holes is fundamental in producing strong, spin-dependent, horizon-threading magnetic fields. Under the additional assumption that jets and outflows in AGN are produced by the BlandfordZnajek and Bl...

X-ray Reeection in Galactic Black Hole Candidates: Smeared Edge Prooles and Resonant Auger Destruction

We consider the spectra of Thomson-thick, geometrically-thin accretion discs around Galactic black hole candidates in the reeection model and compute their iron K edges and iron K lines. We compare the smeared iron K edge prooles that we compute with observation and nd them to be a satisfactory description of the data. We nd that a combination of Doppler broadening and resonant Auger destructio...

Role of Shocked Accretion Flows in Regulating the Qpo of Galactic Black Hole Candidates

Using a generalized non-spherical, multi-transonic accretion flow model, we analytically calculate the normalized QPO frequency νqpo of galactic black hole candidates in terms of dynamical flow variables and self-consistently study the dependence of νqpo on such variables. Our results are in fairly close agreement with the observed QPO frequencies of GRS 1915+105. We find that νqpo is quite sen...
