摘要:

吸积黑洞的X射线涨落的功率谱通常由两个宽峰组成。我们定量研究的假设,即较低的频率驼峰originates从截断薄吸积盘的变化,传播到一个大规模的高度内热流,反过来,本身就是起源的较高的频率驼峰。我们扩展了传播质量吸积率起伏模型PROPFLUC,以适应双峰功率谱以这种方式。此外,我们扩展了模型,预测两个能带之间的交叉谱,除了他们的功率谱,使我们能够约束模型使用观察到的时间滞后,这在模型中的结果从两个传播的fluc- tuations从光盘的热流,和内部的热流。利用该模型对MAXI J1659-152的5个Swift X射线望远镜观测数据进行了软、硬功率谱和互谱的联合拟合。对于我们的大多数观测结果,新的双峰模型比旧的单峰模型提供了更好的数据拟合。数据表明,只有一个小的相位滞后与低频驼峰。我们证明了quantitativity,这是一致的模型。我们比较了截断半径测量从我们的配合与纯粹的光谱拟合测量,并发现在两个因素的协议。这一分析包括第一次联合拟合的恒星质量黑洞交叉谱和功率谱与一个单一的自洽物理模型。

英文摘要:

The power spectrum of the X-ray fluctuations of accreting black holes often consists of two broad humps. We quantitatively investigate the hypothesis that the lower frequency hump orig- inates from variability in a truncated thin accretion disc, propagating into a large scale-height inner hot flow which, in turn, itself is the origin of the higher frequency hump. We extend the propagating mass accretion rate fluctuations model PROPFLUC to accommodate double hump power spectra in this way. Furthermore, we extend the model to predict the cross-spectrum between two energy bands in addition to their power spectra, allowing us to constrain the model using the observed time lags, which in the model result from both propagation of fluc- tuations from the disc to the hot flow, and inside the hot flow. We jointly fit soft and hard power spectrum, and the cross-spectrum between the two bands using this model for 5 Swift X-ray Telescope observations of MAXI J1659-152. The new double hump model provides a better fit to the data than the old single hump model for most of our observations. The data show only a small phase lag associated with the low frequency hump. We demonstrate quan- titatively that this is consistent with the model. We compare the truncation radius measured from our fits with that measured purely by spectral fitting and find agreement within a factor of two. This analysis encompasses the first joint fits of stellar-mass black hole cross-spectra and power spectra with a single self-consistent physical model.
