摘要:

我们提出了同步X射线(RXTE)和光学(ULTRACAM)窄带(鲍文混合/HeII和附近的连续)观测的Sco X-1在2-10 Hz的时间分辨率。我们发现Bowen/HeII辐射滞后于X射线光变曲线,光旅行时间约为11- 16 s,这与伴星的后处理一致。当Sco X-1位于扩口支顶部时,在轨道相位~0.5时检测到来自供体的回波。在耀斑分支的底部也可以看到回波的证据,但有5- 10秒的时间滞后,这与具有径向温度分布的吸积盘中的后处理一致。我们讨论的影响,我们的结果的轨道参数的Sco X-1。

英文摘要:

We present simultaneous X-ray (RXTE) and optical (ULTRACAM) narrow band (Bowen blend/HeII and nearby continuum) observations of Sco X-1 at 2-10 Hz time resolution. We find that the Bowen/HeII emission lags the X-ray light-curves with a light travel time of ~11-16s which is consistent with reprocessing in the companion star. The echo from the donor is detected at orbital phase ~0.5 when Sco X-1 is at the top of the Flaring Branch. Evidence of echoes is also seen at the bottom of the Flaring Branch but with time-lags of 5-10s which are consistent with reprocessing in an accretion disc with a radial temperature profile. We discuss the implication of our results for the orbital parameters of Sco X-1.
