孤立的单个黑洞能产生X射线新星吗?

Can Isolated Single Black Holes Produce X-ray Novae?

Tatsuya Matsumoto, Yuto Teraki, Kunihito Ioka

摘要:

我们银河系中几乎所有的黑洞(BH)和BH候选者都是以软X射线瞬变,即所谓的X射线新星的形式被发现的。X射线新星通常被认为是从双星系统中产生的。这里我们提出X射线新星也是由孤立的单个黑洞引起的。计算了星际物质对孤立黑洞的吸积率分布,发现分子云中的黑洞满足氢电离盘不稳定性条件,从而产生X射线新星。估计的事件发生率与观察到的事件发生率一致。可能的候选包括IGR J17454-2919、XTE J1908-094和SAX J1711.6-3808。近红外测光和光谱的后续工作可以排除我们银河系BH普查的伴星。

英文摘要:

Almost all black holes (BHs) and BH candidates in our Galaxy have been discovered as soft X-ray transients, so-called X-ray novae. X-ray novae are usually considered to arise from binary systems. Here we propose that X-ray novae are also caused by isolated single BHs. We calculate the distribution of the accretion rate from interstellar matter to isolated BHs, and find that BHs in molecular clouds satisfy the condition of the hydrogen-ionizaiton disk instability, which results in X-ray novae. The estimated event rate is consistent with the observed one. Possible candidates include IGR J17454-2919, XTE J1908-094, and SAX J1711.6-3808. Near infrared photometric and spectroscopic follow-ups can exclude companion stars for a BH census in our Galaxy.
