Spectral variability in Cygnus X-3

摘要:

我们模拟了由罗西X射线定时探测器观测到的天鹅座X-3在所有状态下的宽带X射线谱。从我们的模型中,我们第一次推导出未吸收的光谱形状和光度的光谱状态的全部范围。我们解释的非吸收光谱的康普顿化的混合电子分布和强康普顿反射。我们研究了它的光谱演化,并与其它黑洞源和中子星源进行了比较。我们发现,一个中子星吸积体是不一致的光谱演化作为一个功能的Ledd,特别是不与过渡到硬态。我们的结果指出天鹅座X-3中的致密天体是一个质量约为30兆太阳的黑洞。

英文摘要:

We model the broad-band X-ray spectrum of Cyg X-3 in all states displayed by this source as observed by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. From our models, we derive for the first time unabsorbed spectral shapes and luminosities for the full range of spectral states. We interpret the unabsorbed spectra in terms of Comptonization by a hybrid electron distribution and strong Compton reflection. We study the spectral evolution and compare with other black hole as well as neutron star sources. We show that a neutron star accretor is not consistent with the spectral evolution as a function of Ledd and especially not with the transition to a hard state. Our results point to the compact object in Cyg X-3 being a massive, ~30 Msun black hole.
