LMXB中双千赫兹QPO的磁流体力学模型

The magnetohydrodynamics model of twin kilohertz QPOs in LMXBs

Changsheng Shi, Xiang-Dong Li

摘要:

基于中子星磁层中的磁流体动力学振荡模式,对低质量X射线双星中的双千赫兹准周期振荡现象提出了一种解释.考虑到中子星自旋的影响,通过求解色散方程,我们导出了几种MHD波模,并提出两种共振MHD模的耦合可能导致双KHz量子点振荡。该模型将QPO的上、下kHz频率与中子星的自旋频率自然地联系起来,并能很好地解释6个LMXB的测量数据。

英文摘要:

We suggest an explanation for the twin kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations (kHz QPOs) in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) based on magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) oscillation modes in neutron star magnetospheres. Including the effect of the neutron star spin, we derive several MHD wave modes by solving the dispersion equations, and propose that the coupling of the two resonant MHD modes may lead to the twin kHz QPOs. This model naturally relates the upper, lower kHz QPO frequencies with the spin frequencies of the neutron stars, and can well account for the measured data of six LMXBs.
