Accrétion et éjection dans les systèmes binaires X transitoires à trous noirs : le cas de GRS 1716-249
2020
I buchi neri transienti (BHT) sono tra le sorgenti con emissione ai raggi X più luminose della galassia. Grazie all’elevato flusso in banda X e alla loro alta variabilità temporale. queste sorgenti offrono un’opportunità unica per studiare la fisica dell’accrescimento in straordinareie condizioni fisiche. I BHT mostrano episodici outburst caratterizzati da diverse luminosità in banda X e γ, diverse forme spettrali e proprietà della variabilità temporale. L’obiettivo di questa tesi è lo studio della geometria, dei meccanismi e dei processi fisici coinvolti nell’emissione del buco nero transiente GRS 716-249. Di seguito presento l’analisi spettrale e temporale delle osservazioni della GRS 171…
The long outburst of the black hole transient GRS 1716-249 observed in the X-ray and radio band
2018
We present the spectral and timing analysis of X-ray observations performed on the Galactic black hole transient GRS 1716-249 during the 2016-2017 outburst. The source was almost continuously observed with the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory from December 2016 until October 2017. The X-ray hardness ratio and timing evolution indicate that the source approached the soft state three times during the outburst, even though it never reached the canonical soft spectral state. Thus, GRS 1716-249 increases the number of black hole transients showing outbursts with "failed" state transition. During the softening events, XRT and BAT broadband spectral modeling, performed with thermal Comptonization pl…
Testing jet geometries and disc-jet coupling in the neutron star LMXB 4U 0614 + 091 with the internal shocks model
2020
Multi-wavelength spectral energy distributions of Low Mass X-ray Binaries in the hard state are determined by the emission from a jet, for frequencies up to mid-infrared, and emission from the accretion flow in the optical to X-ray range. In the last years, the flat radio-to-mid-IR spectra of Black Hole (BH) X-ray binaries was described using the internal shocks model, which assumes that the fluctuations in the velocity of the ejecta along the jet are driven by the fluctuations in the accretion flow, described by the X-ray Power Density Spectrum (PDS). In this work we attempt to apply this model for the first time to a Neutron Star (NS) LMXB, i.e. 4U 0614+091. We used the multi-wavelength d…
