Corona cooling was detected previously from stacking a series of short type-I bursts occurred during the low/had state of atoll outburst. Type-I bursts are hence regarded as sharp probe to our better understanding on the basic property of the corona. The launch of the first Chinese X-ray satellite Insight-HXMT has large detection area at hard X-rays which provide almost unique chance to move further in this research field. We report the first detection of the corona cooling by Insight-HXMT from single short type-I burst showing up during {\bf flare} of 4U 1636-536. This type-I X-ray burst has a duration of $\sim$13 seconds and hard X-ray shortage is detected with significance 6.2~$σ$ in 40-70 keV. A cross-correlation analysis between the lightcurves of soft and hard X-ray band, shows that the corona shortage lag the burst emission by 1.6 $\pm$1.2~s. These results are consistent with those derived previously from stacking a large amount of bursts detected by RXTE/PCA within a series of {\bf flares} of 4U 1636-536. Moreover, the broad bandwidth of Insight-HXMT allows as well for the first time to infer the burst influence upon the continuum spectrum via performing the spectral fitting of the burst, which ends up with the finding that hard X-ray shortage appears at around 40 keV in the continuum spectrum. These results suggest that the evolution of the corona along with the outburst{\bf /flare} of NS XRB may be traced via looking into a series of embedded type-I bursts by using Insight-HXMT.

Investigating the Disk-Corona Relation in a Blue AGN Sample
我们从SDSS中编译了蓝色活动星系核样本,并研究了硬X射线与热光度之比与埃丁顿比和黑洞质量的关系。我们的样本包括240个射电宁静的塞弗特1星系和类星体。我们发现硬X射线亮度的分数(log $(L_{\rm 2-10 kev}/L_{\rm bol})$)随着爱丁顿比的增加而减小。我们还发现,硬X射线光度的分数是独立的黑洞质量的射电宁静活动星系核。log $(L_{\rm 2-10 kev}/L_{\rm bol})$随爱丁顿比的增加而减小的关系表明,X射线辐射热校正不是常数,从更大的样本支持Vasudevan和Fabian(2007)的结果。我们通过圆盘电晕蒸发/冷凝模型解释了我们的结果(Meyer et al. \cite{me200} ; Liu et al. 2002 a; Liu et al. 2007)。在这个模型的框架中,康普顿冷却在高吸积速率(以爱丁顿速率为单位)下对日冕的冷却变得有效,导致日冕气体冷凝到圆盘上。因此,当爱丁顿比增大时,日冕与盘的相对强度变弱。因此,硬X射线发射到盘发射的分数,因此到辐射热发射的分数在更高的爱丁顿比下更小。硬X射线光度与黑洞质量的独立性也可以用盘状日冕模型来解释,因为日冕结构和光度(以爱丁顿光度为单位)与黑洞的质量无关。
