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; $l_{X} \equiv L_{X} / L_{E dd}$ ) and the photon index ( $Γ$ ) of the X-r…
