It is found that there exists an empirical linear relation between the high frequency $ high$ and low frequency $ low$ of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) for black hole candidate (BHC), neutron star (NS) and white dwarf (WD) in the binary systems, which spans five orders of magnitude in frequency. For the NS Z (Atoll) sources, $ u_{high}$ and $ u_{low}$ are identified as the lower kHz QPO frequency and horizontal branch oscillations (HBOs) $ h$ (broad noise components); for the black hole candidates and low-luminosity neutron stars, they are the QPOs and broad noise components at frequencies between 1 and 10 Hz; for WDs, they are the ``dwarf nova oscillations (DNOs) and QPOs of cataclysmic variables (CVs). To interpret this relation, our model ascribes $ u_{high}$ to the Alfven wave oscillation frequency at a preferred radius and $ u_{low}$ to the same mechanism at another radius. Then, we can obtain $ low = 0.08 high$ and the relation between the upper kHz QPO frequency $ t$ and HBO to be $ h simeq 56 ({rm Hz}) ( t/{rm kHz})^{2}$, which are in accordance with the observed empirical relations. Furthermore, some implications of model are discussed, including why QPO frequencies of white dwarfs and neutron stars span five orders of magnitude in frequency.
This white paper highlights compact object and fundamental physics science opportunities afforded by high-throughput broadband (0.1-60 keV) X-ray polarization observations. X-ray polarimetry gives new observables with geometric information about stel
In astronomy there are basically four kinds of observations to extract the information carried by electromagnetic radiation: photometry, imaging, spectroscopy and polarimetry. By optimal exploitation of the first three techniques, X-ray astronomy has
We review the likely population, observational properties, and broad implications of stellar-mass black holes and ultraluminous x-ray sources. We focus on the clear empirical rules connecting accretion and outflow that have been established for stell
The properties of the aperiodic variability in X-ray binaries with black holes are considered. The power spectra of the luminosity variability for a flat accretion disk that is an emission source with a power-law energy spectrum have been modeled. At
Double white dwarf (double-WD) binaries may merge within a Hubble time and produce high-mass WDs. Compared to other high-mass WDs, the double-WD merger products have higher velocity dispersion because they are older. With the power of Gaia data, we s
