Spectral and temporal properties of Compton scattering by mildly relativistic thermal electrons

Andrzej A. Zdziarski, Michal Szanecki, Juri Poutanen +2

We have obtained new solutions and methods for the process of thermal Comptonization. We modify the solution to the kinetic equation of Sunyaev \& Titarchuk to allow its applicatio…

Evaluation of tools for differential gene expression analysis by RNA-seq on a 48 biological replicate experiment

Nicholas J. Schurch, Pieta Schofield, Marek Gierliński +9

An RNA-seq experiment with 48 biological replicates in each of 2 conditions was performed to determine the number of biological replicates () required, and to identify the mos…

Correlation between the photon index and X-ray luminosity of black hole X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei: observations and interpretation

Qi-Xiang Yang, Fu-Guo Xie, Feng Yuan +4

We investigate the observed correlation between the 2--10 keV X-ray luminosity (in unit of the Eddington luminosity; ) and the photon index () of the X-r…

A study of spectral and timing properties of Cyg X-1 based on a large sample of pointed RXTE observations

Marek Gierlinski, Andrzej A. Zdziarski, Chris Done

We study a large sample of RXTE PCA/HEXTE observations of Cyg X-1. We characterize the spectra by soft and hard X-ray colours (which define the spectral states), and fit them with…

Compton scattering as the explanation of the peculiar X-ray properties of Cyg X-3

A. A. Zdziarski, R. Misra, M. Gierlinski

We consider implications of a possible presence of a Thomson-thick, low-temperature, plasma cloud surrounding the compact object in the binary system Cyg X-3. The presence of such…

The Seyfert AGN RX J0136.9-3510 and the Spectral State of Super Eddington Accretion Flows

C. Jin, C. Done, M. Ward +2

We have carried out a survey of long 50ks XMM-Newton observations of a sample of bright, variable AGN. We found a distinctive energy dependence of the variability in RXJ0136.9-3510…
