摘要:

最近发表的一项关于环礁源4U 1636-53中千赫兹准周期振荡(QPO)频率的长期演变的研究得出结论,从单一频率的分布中推断出的双QPO分布中没有优选的频率比。然而,我们发现,实际观察到的kHz QPO频率对的比率的分布的峰值接近3/2的值,也可能接近5/4的比率。为了解决这两项研究之间的明显矛盾,我们详细研究了在我们的数据集中检测到的较低kHz QPO和较高kHz QPO的频率分布。我们证明,对于每两个kHz的QPO(较低或较高),在所有检测的QPO的频率分布不同的频率分布的相同的QPO的观测子集,其中两个kHz的QPO检测。我们的结论是,单独的QPO的检测不应该被用于计算的频率比的分布。

英文摘要:

A recently published study on long term evolution of the frequencies of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the atoll source 4U 1636-53 concluded that there is no preferred frequency ratio in a distribution of twin QPOs that was inferred from the distribution of a single frequency alone. However, we find that the distribution of the ratio of actually observed pairs of kHz QPO frequencies is peaked close to the 3/2 value, and possibly also close to the 5/4 ratio. To resolve the apparent contradiction between the two studies, we examine in detail the frequency distributions of the lower kHz QPO and the upper kHz QPO detected in our data set. We demonstrate that for each of the two kHz QPOs (the lower or the upper), the frequency distribution in all detections of a QPO differs from the distribution of frequency of the same QPO in the subset of observations where both the kHz QPOs are detected. We conclude that detections of individual QPOs alone should not be used for calculation of the distribution of the frequency ratios.
