Estimating the Spins of Stellar-Mass Black Holes by Fitting Their Continuum Spectra
We have used the Novikov-Thorne thin disk model to fit the continuum X-ray spectra of three transient black hole X-ray binaries in the thermal state. From the fits we estimate the dimensionless spin parameters of the black holes to be: 4U 1543–47, a∗ ≡ a/M = 0.7− 0.85; GRO J1655–40, a∗ = 0.65− 0.8; GRS 1915+105, a∗ = 0.98− 1. We plan to expand the sample of spin estimates to about a dozen over ...
متن کاملAutomated analysis of stellar spectra
Classical model-atmosphere analyses of stellar spectra usually begin by measuring equivalent widths, and then proceed into a loop in which 1) model spectra are calculated for a set of abundances and atmospheric parameters, and 2) observed and computed spectra are compared and corrections to the abundances and parameters are inferred. Automated techniques have been developed to automate the meas...
متن کاملStellar Rotation from GAIA Spectra
Abstract. Stellar rotation influences our understanding of stellar structure and evolution, binary systems, clusters etc. and therefore the benefits of a large and highly accurate database on stellar rotation, obtained by GAIA, will be manifold. To study the prospects of GAIA measurement of projected rotational velocities vrot sin i, we use synthetic stellar spectra to simulate the determinatio...
متن کاملFitting Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Optical Spectra
In this work, a comprehensive methodology for the fitting of single-walled carbon nanotube absorption spectra is presented. Different approaches to background subtraction, choice of line profile, and calculation of full width at half-maximum are discussed both in the context of previous literature and the contemporary understanding of carbon nanotube photophysics. The fitting is improved by the...
