摘要:

典型的黑洞双星在爆发时表现出光谱状态和跃迁,其特征是流入黑洞和从其附近流出之间有明显的联系。短暂的恒星质量黑洞双星V404 Cyg显然不适合这张照片。其爆发的特点是强烈的耀斑和间歇性的低通量状态,在几个小时的时间尺度上具有几个数量级的动力学范围。在2015年6月至7月的X射线爆发期间,Swift和INTEGRAL的联合观测活动捕获了其中一个低通量状态的V404 Cyg。同步的Swift/XRT和INTEGRAL/JEM-X/ISGRI光谱让人想起了被遮蔽/吸收的活动星系核。它可以被模拟为康普顿化光谱,被部分覆盖的高柱密度材料($N_\textrm{H} \approx 1.4\times10^{24}\,\textrm{cm}^{-2}$)和主要反射成分(包括窄的铁-K $α$线)严重吸收。这样的光谱分布可以产生的几何厚吸积流能够推出cluerous质量外流,可能负责高的内在吸收和强烈的反射发射观察。与某些被遮蔽的活动星系核类似,低通量状态可能不仅仅与内禀光度的降低有关,而是可能由内部吸积流几乎完全被遮蔽所引起。

英文摘要:

Typical black hole binaries in outburst show spectral states and transitions, characterized by a clear connection between the inflow onto the black hole and outflow from its vicinity. The transient stellar mass black hole binary V404 Cyg apparently does not fit in this picture. Its outbursts are characterized by intense flares and intermittent low-flux states, with a dynamical range of several orders of magnitude on timescales of hours. During the 2015 June-July X-ray outburst a joint Swift and INTEGRAL observing campaign captured V404 Cyg in one of these low-flux states. The simultaneous Swift/XRT and INTEGRAL/JEM-X/ISGRI spectrum is reminiscent of that of obscured/absorbed AGN. It can be modeled as a Comptonization spectrum, heavily absorbed by a partial covering, high-column density material ($N_\textrm{H} \approx 1.4\times10^{24}\,\textrm{cm}^{-2}$), and a dominant reflection component, including a narrow Iron-K$α$ line. Such spectral distribution can be produced by a geometrically thick accretion flow able to launch a clumpy mass outflow, likely responsible for both the high intrinsic absorption and the intense reflection emission observed. Similarly to what happens in certain obscured AGN, the low-flux states might not be solely related to a decrease in the intrinsic luminosity, but could instead be caused by an almost complete obscuration of the inner accretion flow.
