Massive Black Holes
in AGN
 Ubiquitous in normal galaxies (not
dwarfs)
 Hole mass related to mass of
bulge and velocity dispersion
 Most local black holes are
dormant
 When fueled through an accretion
disk

RE J1034+396
•z=0.042 Seyfert galaxy
•Lbol ~ 1044.7 erg s-1
•FUV-SX
•XMM-Newton observations
•1 hr QPO in ~1 d observing
•Best example to date in
AGN of a phenomenon quite
common in stellar XRB
•<Q> ~ 16 overall but much
higher for section of data
•~7% sinusoidal profile
•Interpreted as diskoseismic
mode
•Could it be an EMRI mass
transfer binary?
•Planetars???

Close Binary Stars
 Cataclysmic variables
• WD + “red” star
• ~2000 P>80min
 Low Mass X-ray Binaries
• BH/NS + lower mass companion
• ~200 P>11min, LX ~1036-38 erg s-1
 Ultra Compact X-ray Binaries
• WD+Ns
• P>5min
 Evolve to overflow Roche Lobe through L1
• Accretion disk + hot spot
• Orbits evolve by gravitational, magnetic braking
• Outbursts due to unstable supply, transfer and burning

Conservative Mass transfer
 Transfer m -> M at constant m+M, J
 J ~ mMP1/3
 If M>>m and gravitational radiation wins,
• dJ/dt~-m2M4/3P-7/3
 If m fills Roche lobe,
P~r-1/2 ~m0.8 =>J~m1.3
• J decreases
• Orbit expands
Stable
• Period lengthens

Relativistic Roche Problem
 Riemann -> local tidal tensor.
 Evaluate volume within critical
equipotential and evaluate

Pre-Roche evolution
 Gravitational radiation dominates
• Need PPN corrections to torque
 Low mass star fills Roche lobe when
P=PR=8m0.8hr
[ => m < 0.1 Mo ]
 Outside ISCO
• P > PISCO ~ M
[=>M<3x107Mo]
 Time to overflow
tR-t=2x105M6-2/3m1.3[(P/PR)8/3-1] yr

S[m] will be frozen
Solve:
dP/dm=-Gm/4pr4
dr/dm=1/4pr2r[S(m),P]
=> d log <r>/d log m =h

Post-Roche Evolution
 After mass transfer orbit expands
• P ~ m-h/2
~ m-1 for low mass star
t-tR=1400M6-2/3m-1 P8/3 [(P/PR)11/3-1] yr; [~ 5000yr]
 Conservative Mass loss
dm/dt = (dm/dt)R = -1.3x1020M0.7P-0.3 g s-1 [~ 1021g s-1]
~ -m8.3 eventually till ttransfer > tKelvin
 Dynamical complications
• Holding pattern?
• Interactions, drag

Mass transfer
 Mass flows from L1 onto
relativistic disk forming
hotspot
 Gas spirals in to rms before
plunging into hole
 Inclined orbits are more
complex as streams may not
self-intersect
 Disk flow may have complex
gaps and resonances
 Hot spot Doppler beams

emission
 Also spiral shocks, eccentricity

AGN QPOs: other mechanisms
 Passage of star through an accretion disk
orbiting a spinning black hole
(Zentsova; Nyakshin; Dai, Fuerst & RB)
• Inclined stellar orbit, apsidal motion, precession
• Inelastic collisions -> beamed X-ray emission
• Ray tracing
 Star moving through sub-Keplerian disk
 Diskoseismic modes
• Trapped g-modes

Other observations
 17 min IR QPO frm SgrA* (Genzel)
 12yr period in OJ287??
• Binary black holes??? (Lehto & Valtonen)
 LISA harbingers
• Discover incipient EMRI, coalescence
• Predictable evolution with degree position!
• Seek electromagnetic signal in phase with
~10-9 power
- eg LSST.

Summary
 Observations of quasi-periodic X-ray
emission from stars orbiting black holes in
AGN is a potential probe of general
relativity
 RE J1034+396 may not be an example
 Reasonable to search AGN X-ray database
for QPO’s with P~5-20hr
 AGN black holes could have many
“planetars”
