Evidence of outflow-induced soft lags of Galactic black holes.

Abstract (from CDS):

The nature of lag variation of Galactic black holes remains enigmatic mostly because of nonlinear and nonlocal physical mechanisms which contribute to the lag of the photons coming from the region close to the central black holes. One of the widely accepted major sources of the hard lag is the inverse Comptonization mechanism. However, the exact reason, or reasons, for soft lags has yet to be identified. In this paper, we report a possible correlation between radio intensities of several outbursting Galactic black hole candidates and amounts of soft lag. The correlation suggests that the presence of major outflows or jets changes the disk morphology along the line of sight of the observer which produces soft lags.
