Ph.D. Thesis", "categories": [ "astro-ph.HE" ], "abstract": "In the Thesis, I study the X-ray properties of the two major stages of the life cycle of the stars: one is the normal life of a lighter mass star (Sun) and another is the collapsed state (black hole) of a star (black hole candidates GRO J1655-40, GX 339-4 and GRBs). I am lucky to be a team member for developing X-ray solar space instruments RT-2 (S, G and CZT) which observed both the Sun and Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) from space. A part of my Thesis contains development of RT-2 instruments, characterization of CZT & CMOS imaging detectors (used in RT-2/CZT instrument), some observational results of solar flares and GRBs. My Thesis also contains the detailed timing & spectral properties of the 2005 outburst of the well known Galactic black hole candidate GRO J1655-40 and initial rising phase of 2010 outburst of the transient Galactic stellar mass black hole candidate GX 339-4.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-08-03T07:03:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "x-ray properties", "mass black hole candidate", "black hole candidate gro", "stellar mass black hole", "black hole candidate gx" ], "tags": [ "dissertation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 173, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 922070, "adsabs": "2011arXiv1108.0762D" } } }
