高质量X射线双星的INTEGRAL遗产

The INTEGRAL legacy on High Mass X-ray Binaries

Sylvain Chaty, Juan Antonio Zurita Heras, Arash Bodaghee

摘要:

INTEGRAL卫星的观测使超巨星高质量X射线双星(HMXB)的数量增加了四倍,揭示了以前隐藏的超巨星HMXB的数量,并允许在超巨星HMXB中发现巨大和快速的瞬时耀斑。除了这3个观测事实,INTEGRAL是否让我们更好地了解这些超巨星HMXB?我们现在是否对所谓的Corbet图中分离的3个HMXB群及其吸积过程有了更好的了解?在云团风模型和瞬态吸积盘形成的背景下,我们是否能更好地理解超巨星HMXB中的吸积过程,以及是什么使快速瞬态耀斑如此特殊?总之,与INTEGRAL发射前已知的来源相比,超巨型HMXB的数量增加是否允许更好地了解这些来源?我们将回顾所有这些观测事实,与当前模型进行比较,以客观地估计高质量X射线双星的完整遗产是什么。

英文摘要:

Observations with the INTEGRAL satellite have quadrupled the population of supergiant High Mass X-ray Binaries (HMXBs), revealed a previously hidden population of obscured supergiant HMXBs, and allowed the discovery of huge and fast transient flares in supergiant HMXBs. Apart from these 3 observational facts, has INTEGRAL allowed us to better understand these supergiant HMXBs? Do we have now a better understanding of the 3 populations of HMXBs, and of their accretion process, separated in the so-called Corbet diagram? Do we better apprehend the accretion process in the supergiant HMXBs, and what makes the fast transient flares so special, in the context of the clumpy wind model, and of the formation of transient accretion disks? In summary, has the increased population of supergiant HMXBs allowed a better knowledge of these sources, compared to the ones that were already known before the launch of INTEGRAL? We will review all these observational facts, comparing to the current models, to objectively estimate what is the INTEGRAL legacy on High Mass X-ray Binaries.
