Emission components of a black hole X-ray binary

Accretion flow Jet

Emission from various components:

Jet

Synchrotron emission: radio through optical-infra-red (OIR) and possibly in X-rays

Hot flow/corona

Comptonized emission: hard X-rays

also suggested to emit in OIR

Accretion disc

Thermal emission: inner disc soft X-rays outer disc to UV & op.

Origin of variable IR emission

Intrinsic outer disc emission? Variability time scales are too fast

Origin of variable IR emission

Synchrotron emission from outer hot flow?

Intrinsic outer disc emission? Variability time scales are too fast Reprocessing of variable X-ray Too short CCF delay

emission incident on outer disc? Highly inclined disc and a highly asymmetric CCF required

Conclusions

First QPO detection in IR band in a black hole X-ray binary

The IR and optical QPO are at half the frequency of the X-

ray QPO

The variable IR emission (broad band) is most likely jet

emission

The IR emission variable on the QPO time scale could be

from Lense-Thirring precession of the hot flow – but this is

difficult to reconcile with the broad band variability
