Complex Phase Lag Behaviors of the 0.5 - 10 Hz QPOs in GRS 1915+105
D. Lin, I. A. Smith, E. P. Liang +1
Through studying the hard lags between the soft (3.3 - 5.8 keV) and hard (13.0 - 41.0 keV) photons of the 0.5 - 10 Hz QPOs in GRS 1915+105, we have classified them into three types…
The Energy Dependence of the Aperiodic Variability for Cygnus X-1, GX 339-4, GRS 1758-258, & 1E 1740.7-2942
D. Lin, I. A. Smith, M. Bottcher +1
Using the data from the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE), we report the different energy dependence of the variability of the four persistent hard X-ray sources in the low-hard s…
A New Model for the Hard Time Lags in Black Hole X-Ray Binaries
M. Boettcher, E. P. Liang
The time-dependent Comptonized output of a cool soft X-ray source drifting inward through an inhomogeneous hot inner disk or corona is numerically simulated. We propose that this s…
Comptonization signatures in the rapid aperiodic variability of Galactic black-hole candidates
M. Boettcher, E. P. Liang
We investigate the effect of inverse-Compton scattering of flares of soft radiation in different geometries of a hot, Comptonizing region and a colder accretion disk around a solar…
