内容記述 | The May 7, 1978 HEAO 1 spacecraft observations of Cygnus X-1 with a 10 microsec time resolution have revealed 3 ms variability, as well as a 300 ms component and features which extend to 6 s. Emission on time scales shorter than 1 s can be approximately modeled as a superposition of uncorrelated 3 ms and 300 ms shot contributions, both with peak luminosities near 10 to the 37th ergs/s, and with shot rates of about 10/s and 0.2/s, respectively. The 3 ms variability is consistent with the time scales expected for variability near the inner edge of a viscous accretion disk that surrounds a 10-solar mass black hole. |
