英文摘要 | Abstract We report the first half-year monitoring of the new Galactic black hole candidate MAXI J1348–630, discovered on 2019 January 26 with the Gas Slit Camera on board the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI). During the monitoring period, the source exhibited two outburst peaks, where the first peak flux (at T?=?14 days from the discovery of T?=?0) was ~4 Crab (2–20 keV) and the second one (at T?=?132 days) was ~0.4 Crab (2–20 keV). The source exhibited distinct spectral transitions between the high/soft and low/hard states and an apparent “q”-shape curve on the hardness-intensity diagram, both of which are well-known characteristics of black hole binaries (BHBs). Compared to other bright black hole transients, MAXI J1348–630 is characterized by its low disk temperature (~0.75 keV at the maximum) and high peak flux in the high/soft state. The low peak temperature leads to a large innermost radius that is identified as the innermost stable circular orbit, determined by the black hole mass and spin. Assuming the empirical relation between the soft-to-hard transition luminosity (Ltrans) and the Eddington luminosity (LEdd), Ltrans/LEdd?≈?0.02, and a face-on disk around a non-spinning black hole, the source distance and the black hole mass are estimated to be D?≈?4 kpc and , respectively. The black hole is more massive if the disk is inclined and the black hole is spinning. These results suggest that MAXI J1348–630 may host a relatively massive black hole among the known BHBs in our Galaxy. |
