X-ray time lags and nonlinear variability in the ultraluminous X-ray sources NGC 5408 X-1 and NGC 6946 X-1
L. Hernández-García, S. Vaughan, T. P. Roberts +1
We present our analysis of the X-ray variability of two ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) based on multiple XMM--Newton observations. We show the linear rms-flux relation is prese…
Binary evolution with LOFT
T. J. Maccarone, R. A. M. Wijnands, N. Degenaar +10
This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…
Accretion, ejection and reprocessing in supermassive black holes
A. De Rosa, S. Bianchi, M. Giroletti +35
This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…
Discovery of a ~5 day characteristic timescale in the Kepler power spectrum of Zw 229-15
Rick Edelson, Simon Vaughan, Matt Malkan +4
We present time series analyses of the full Kepler dataset of Zw 229-15. This Kepler light curve --- with a baseline greater than three years, composed of virtually continuous, eve…
X-ray variability of 104 active galactic nuclei. XMM-Newton power-spectrum density profiles
O. Gonzalez-Martin, S. Vaughan
AGN, powered by accretion onto SMBHs, are thought to be scaled up versions of Galactic black hole X-ray binaries (BH-XRBs). In the past few years evidence of such correspondence in…
The Ubiquity of the rms-flux relation in Black Hole X-ray Binaries
L. M. Heil, S. Vaughan, P. Uttley
We have investigated the short term linear relation between the rms variability and the flux in 1,961 observations of 9 black hole X-ray binaries. The rms-flux relation for the 1-1…
