The advection-dominated accretion flow for the origin of the thermal soft X-ray component in low-level accreting neutron stars
Erlin Qiao, B. F. Liu
A thermal soft X-ray component is often detected in low-level accreting neutron stars (NSs), but is not detected in low-level accreting stellar-mass black holes (BHs). In this pape…
Discovery of a pulsating Fe Ka line in GX 301-2
Jiren Liu, Roberto Soria, Erlin Qiao +1
We report on the detection of a pulsating Fe Ka line in the High Mass X-ray Binary (HMXB) GX 301-2, from a 40-ks Chandra observation near periastron. The pulsations in the Fe Ka em…
A Model for Spectral States and Their Transition in Cyg X-1
Ronald E. Taam, Erlin Qiao, B. F. Liu +1
A new accretion picture based on a small disk surrounding a black hole is developed for the wind-fed source Cyg X-1. The hard and soft spectral states of Cyg X-1 are interpreted in…
Do long-cadence data of {\it Kepler} satellite capture the basic properties of flares ?
Huiqin Yang, Jifeng Liu, Erlin Qiao +4
Flare research is becoming a burgeoning realm in the study of stellar activity due to the launch of {\it Kepler} in 2009. {\it Kepler} provides data with two time resolutions, i.e.…
Exploring the physics of the accretion and jet in nearby narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies
Su Yao, Erlin Qiao, Xue-Bing Wu +1
In this paper, we explore the physics of the accretion and jet in narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1). Specifically, we compile a sample composed of 16 nearby NLS1 with $L_{\rm b…
A systematic study of the condensation of the corona and the application for correlation in luminous active galactic nuclei
Erlin Qiao, B. F. Liu
In this paper, we explained the observed correlation in luminous active galactic nuclei within the framework of the condensation of the co…
