- New Data from 2010-04-03 (hard state)
On 2009-10-23 at 19:55 UT, RXTE discovered a new source while scanning the galactic bulge region, designated XTE J1752-223. Based on the existing PCA scan data, the best fit position is, R.A. = 268.05(16), Dec. = -22.31(4) (J2000). The 2-10 keV flux of the source at that time was about 30 mCrab. (1 mCrab = 2.4e-11 erg/cm/s^2, 2-10 keV)
Observation interval:MJD 55132 - 55155 Data format: RXTE/PCA Timing: Event and/or Binned Spectral: Standard 2 Software: HEASOFT v. 6.8 (powspec & xspec)

- f XTE J1752-223
The PDS produced for whole interval ~2000 sec., and averaged for 128 sec., with step of 0.015625 sec.
The Change of First Lorentzian's
- Char. Frequency
The central frequency of this Lorentzian is frozen to zero
The Change of Second Lorentzian's
- Char. Frequency
The central frequency of this Lorentzian is free
The Change of First Lorentzian's RMS
The Change of Second Lorentzian's RMS
Spectral Result
Energy Spectra (2.55~45 keV) were fitted by model reflect*phabs(powerlaw+gaussian)
The Change of Photon Index and Reflection Scaling Factor
Correlation between timing and spectral
Number 1 means First Lorentzian Number 2 means Second Lorentzian
Characteristic Frequency 1 & 2
RMS 1 & Photon Index
RMS 2 & Photon Index
- Increasing of Photon Index
(going to the IS state)
- Increasing of Ch. Freq. (i.e.
the radius of Inner disc is increasing)
- Decreasing of RMS (probably
disc getting brighter)
- Cold disc (from Swift obs.)
Discussion and Conclusion
- Disk sets frequency?
- One of the Lorentzian
linked to Power Law?
- Second Lorentzian has
another origin.
