Abstract
We study the multi-wavelength spectral properties of the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1348–630 using quasi-simultaneous ALMA, NICER, and Swift observations during the decay phase of the January 2019 outburst. In millimeter wavelengths, radio continuum emissions in the frequency range of 89.56–351.44 GHz are measured. We found that the flux densities at millimeter wavelength varied between 12.18 mJy and 18.47 mJy with spectral index (\(\alpha \)) of \(0.28\pm 0.02\). The broadband spectrum suggests that the source was accompanied by weak synchrotron emission from the compact jets. Broadband spectral study indicates that MAXI J1348–630 falls in the regime of “radio-quiet” during the decay phase of the outburst. The NICER spectrum is fitted by a combined model of disk blackbody component (diskbb) along with a comptonization component (simpl) which explains the power-law continuum caused by the thermal Comptonisation of soft disk photons in a hot gas of electrons. The NICER spectrum is dominated by the comptonised components during the decay phase of the outburst close to the hard state of the source. We have investigated the correlation between X-ray and radio luminosity using quasi-simultaneous ALMA and NICER data to understand the source nature by locating the source in the \(L_{X}\)-\(L_{R}\) diagram. The correlation study of radio/X-ray luminosity suggests that MAXI J1348–630 did not follow the well-known track for black holes and it is a new member of a restricted group of sources.
期刊介绍:
Astrophysics and Space Science publishes original contributions and invited reviews covering the entire range of astronomy, astrophysics, astrophysical cosmology, planetary and space science and the astrophysical aspects of astrobiology. This includes both observational and theoretical research, the techniques of astronomical instrumentation and data analysis and astronomical space instrumentation. We particularly welcome papers in the general fields of high-energy astrophysics, astrophysical and astrochemical studies of the interstellar medium including star formation, planetary astrophysics, the formation and evolution of galaxies and the evolution of large scale structure in the Universe. Papers in mathematical physics or in general relativity which do not establish clear astrophysical applications will no longer be considered.
The journal also publishes topically selected special issues in research fields of particular scientific interest. These consist of both invited reviews and original research papers. Conference proceedings will not be considered. All papers published in the journal are subject to thorough and strict peer-reviewing.
Astrophysics and Space Science features short publication times after acceptance and colour printing free of charge.
