英文摘要 | Using the data from the Proportional Counter Array on board the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer satellite, we study the orbital modulation for the spectrum and mass accretion rate of Cir X-1 during its two orbital periods. We use a model consisting of a blackbody, a multicolor disk blackbody, and a line component to fit the spectrum and find that the spec-trum is obviously modulated by the orbital phase. It is shown that the disk accretion rate in Cir X-1 undergoes three states during the orbital period. At the periastron with orbital phase 0 - 0.1, the disk accretion rate is sup-Eddington, then from phase 0.1 to the apastron (phase 0.5) it decreases dramatically and becomes near-Eddington, and from the apastron to the next periastron (phase 1) the disk accretion rate approximates Eddington and tends to be steady. We ar-gue that the evolution of the disk accretion rate is attributed to the high orbital eccentricity of this source. The mass ac-cretion rate onto the neutron star is much less than that onto the inner disk, indicating significant outflows in this source. |
