On the Properties of Inner Cool Disks in the Hard State of Black Hole X-Ray Transient Systems

Ronald E. Taam, B. F. Liu, F. Meyer +1

The formation of a cool disk in the innermost regions of black hole X-ray transient systems in the low hard state is investigated. Taking into account the combined cooling associat…

The Existence of Inner Cool Disks in the Low Hard State of Accreting Black Holes

B. F. Liu, Ronald E. Taam, E. Meyer-Hofmeister +1

The condensation of matter from a corona to a cool, optically thick inner disk is investigated for black hole X-ray transient systems in the low hard state. A description of a simp…

Disk-Evaporation Fed Corona: Structure and Evaporation Feature with Magnetic Field

Lei Qian, B. F. Liu, Xue-Bing Wu

The disk-corona evaporation model naturally interprets many observational phenomena in black hole X-ray binaries, such as the truncation of an accretion disk and the spectral state…

Re-condensation from an ADAF into an inner disk - the intermediate state of black hole accretion?

F. Meyer, B. F. Liu, E. Meyer-Hofmeister

Context: Accretion onto galactic and supermassive black holes occurs in different modes, which are documented in hard and soft spectral states, commonly attributed to an advection-…

An inner disk below the ADAF: the intermediate spectral state of black hole accretion

B. F. Liu, ; F. Meyer, E. Meyer-Hofmeister

Aims: The hard and soft spectral states of black hole accretion are understood as connected with ADAF accretion (truncated disk) and standard disk accretion, respectively. However,…

Spectral state transitions in low-mass X-ray binaries - the effect of hard and soft irradiation

B. F. Liu, F. Meyer, E. Meyer-Hofmeister

In neutron star and black hole X-ray binaries the transitions between the two spectral states, hard and soft, signals the change between accretion via a hot advection-dominated flo…
