摘要:

候选黑洞1 E 1740.7-2942是银河系中心区域最强的硬X射线源之一。目前还没有发现这个天体在更长波长上的对应物。在X射线源的通量历史中存在的特征定时签名已被证明是这些系统的属性的重要诊断工具。利用NASA的Swift和ESA的INTEGRAL任务的同步数据,我们在1 E 1740.7-2942的长期硬X射线光变曲线中发现了12.61 $\pm$ 0.06天和171.1 $\pm$ 3.0天的两个周期性特征。我们将其分别解释为该物体的轨道和超轨道周期。报告的轨道周期与先前使用NASA的RXTE数据对1 E 1740.7-2942的研究非常一致。我们在这里提出了1 E 1740.7-2942的超轨道周期的第一个确凿证据,这对双星系统的性质具有重要意义。

英文摘要:

The black hole candidate 1E 1740.7-2942 is one of the strongest hard X-ray sources in the Galactic Center region. No counterparts in longer wavelengths have been identified for this object yet. The presence of characteristic timing signatures in the flux history of X-ray sources has been shown to be an important diagnostic tool for the properties of these systems. Using simultaneous data from NASA's Swift and ESA's INTEGRAL missions, we have found two periodic signatures at 12.61 $\pm$ 0.06 days and 171.1 $\pm$ 3.0 days in long-term hard X-ray light curves of 1E 1740.7-2942. We interpret those as the orbital and superorbital periods of the object, respectively. The reported orbital period is in good agreement with previous studies of 1E 1740.7-2942 using NASA's RXTE data. We present here the first firm evidence of a superorbital period for 1E 1740.7-2942, which has important implications for the nature of the binary system.
