6. Accretion Disk Winds . High M CVs -- ~ 3000 km/s
-- low ionization state: <QNe>~5
-- Mwind ~ 0.1 Macc
-- modest collimation
-- from or near boundary layer
AGN
-- ~ 1000 km/s
-- Range of ionization states: QFe = 7-24
-- Mwind = 0.02 to 0.05 Macc
-- originate 0.01 to 1 pc from BH, ~103 to 104 Rs -
-- clumpy, multiphase
LMXBs
-- ≥ 1000 km/s
-- high ionization QFe ~
-- Mwind up to Macc
-- ~ 1010 cm 103 Rs
--- narrow range of ionization parameter . . . . . . . .

12. VERY Highly Ionized compared to AGN
Miller et al.
VERY Highly Ionized compared to AGN
Need to use Voigt profiles to model EW (saturation)
High A values mean little flat part to curve of growth
Double Abundances of O, Ne and Ca-Ni to match
(Does not agree with optical abundances of Israelian et al. or
González Hernández et al. enhancement of Si and S)
Low Covering Factor: > 6° (no eclipse) < 12° (no Fe XXIV 3s-2p)

15. Thermally Driven Wind? Begelman, McKee & Shields TIC = 1.4x107 K
Woods et al.
Begelman, McKee & Shields
TIC = 1.4x107 K
RIC= cm (cs=vesc)
Wind at r > 0.1 to 0.2 RIC
r > cm
Woods et al.
Full heating, cooling and hydro
Illuminating spectrum very similar to GRO
Proga & Kallman
Disk UV can help launch wind, but density still low

16. Where is the gas in GRO1655-40? ξ = L/nr2 N = nr = L/ξr
r < L/Nξ (L from continuum, N and ξ from lines) OR
r = (L/nξ)1/2 (n from Fe XXII)
Miller et al. 2006: r < cm < RIC : Not Thermally Driven
Netzer : r0 = cm : Maybe Thermally Driven
Miller et al. 2007: r0 < cm < 0.02 RIC : Not Thermally Driven
Slab vs 1/r (allows somewhat lower )
Fe XXII density ( 11.77Å line cannot be saturated given 2p-4d lines)

17. Mass Loss Rate M =  v A . Woods et al predict a peak mass loss rate
of 6x10–6 g/(cm2 s)
(scaled with BH mass)
Divide by v=500 km/s
(Vertical wind makes it
worse.)
nmax = cm-3
vs observed cm -3
THERMAL WIND PREDICTS A DENSITY TOO LOW BY ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE .

18. equatorial v = few*10^(2-3) km/s high m-dot Magnetic Disk Wind Model
Proga 2003
Equatorial
Matches modest solid angle
Few hundred km/s
Matches observed Doppler shift
High M-dot
Matches High density
Thermally driven wind may explain
more typical high , low ne when only
Fe XXV and Fe XXVI are detected?

19. Conclusions Disks and Winds give rich absorption and emission spectra
with lots of diagnostic possibilities.
Emission lines are visible when central continuum is obscured.
Disk emission from LMXRBs is consistent with a photoionization
dominated corona.
Winds are ubiquitous is CVs, AGN and XRBs.
Mass loss rates are significant compared to accretion rates.
Radiation pressure is not sufficient.
Thermal pressure may be sufficient for AGNs and some XRB
spectra, but not for the GRO low soft state or for CVs
in the high state.
Therefore, magnetic forces are important in some cases.

20. Extra Slides

21. Netzer argued Fe XXII 11.77Å line is saturated, but patchy to
allow n2/n1 ~ 0.1
Identified 11.54Å and 11.42Å as weaker Fe XXII lines, but
Separation is wrong and is too strong.

22. 2p – 4d
2s – 4p?
Predicts 8.97 Å 2p 2P1/2 - 4d line stronger than 11.92Å
2p 2P3/2 – 3d line. Fails by more than a factor of 4.
Nearly optically thin ratio matches prediction. 2.6mÅ : 16 mÅ
