Holonomy invariance, orbital resonances and kilohertz QPOs
@article{Abramowicz2002HolonomyIO, title={Holonomy invariance, orbital resonances and kilohertz QPOs}, author={Marek Arthur Abramowicz and G. J. E. Almergren and Wlodek Klu'zniak and Arun Varma Thampan and F. Wallinder}, journal={Classical and Quantum Gravity}, year={2002}, volume={19} }
Quantized orbital structures are typical for many aspects of classical gravity (Newton's as well as Einstein's). The astronomical phenomenon of orbital resonances is a well-known example. Recently, Rothman et al (2001 Class. Quantum Grav. 18 1217–33) discussed quantized orbital structures in the novel context of a holonomy invariance of parallel transport in Schwarzschild geometry. We present here yet another example of quantization of orbits, one that is closely related to orbital resonances…

Equatorial geodesics of dyonic Kerr-Newman black hole pierced by a cosmic string
- Physics

Abstract.This paper is devoted to study the circular geodesics of the dyonic Kerr-Newman black hole with a cosmic string passing through it. We investigate circular geodesics of null and timelike…
Super-spinning compact objects and models of high-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations observed in Galactic microquasars
- Physics

We have previously applied several models of high-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (HF QPOs) to estimate the spin of the central Kerr black hole in the three Galactic microquasars, GRS 1915+105,…
THE TIME VARIABILITY OF GEOMETRICALLY THIN BLACK HOLE ACCRETION DISKS. I. THE SEARCH FOR MODES IN SIMULATED DISKS
- Physics

Holonomy in the Schwarzschild-Droste Geometry
- Physics
- 2000
Parallel transport of vectors in curved spacetimes generally results in a deficit angle between the directions of the initial and final vectors. We examine such holonomy in the Schwarzschild-Droste…
Marginally stable orbits around Maclaurin spheroids and low-mass quark stars
- Physics, Geology
- 2002
When the eccentricity of a Maclaurin spheroid exceeds a critical value ($e>0.83458318$), circular orbits in the equatorial plane are unstable for a range of orbital radii outside the stellar surface…
Trapping of Non-Axisymmetric $g$-Mode Oscillations in Thin Relativistic Disks and kHz QPOs
- Physics
- 2001
We suggest that in the inner part of geometrically thin relativistic disks there are trapped non-axisymmetric g-mode oscillations which are excited by a corotation resonance. These oscillation modes…
Optical reference geometry for stationary and static dynamics

Attention is drawn to the advantages of representing dynamical behavior in a stationary or static background spacetime in terms of a fixed reference 3-geometry that differs from the usual one by a…
Discovery of a Second High-Frequency Quasi-periodic Oscillation from the Microquasar GRS 1915+105

We report the discovery in archival Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer data of a ~40 Hz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in the hard X-ray flux from the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105. The QPO is…

We overview the theory of black hole accretion disks. In the first half, we introduce basic accretion disk models with emphasis on optically thin, advection-dominated accretion flows (ADAFs). We then…
