  3. Orbital motion in a strong gravity General belief dominating in the astrophysical community links the kHz QPOs to the orbital motion near the inner edge of an accretion disc. Figs on this page:nasa.gov

  11. 3.2 Fitting the data in the Hartle-Thorne metric

  12. Fitting the data in the Hartle-Thorn We consider the external rotating neutron spacetime description given by „ugly“ HARTLE-THORN METRIC. We use slightly modified relations for geodesic frequencies derived by Abramowicz, M.A., Almergren, G.J.E., Kluzniak, W., Thampan, A.V., 2003 astro-ph/0312070.

  14. Data of atoll source 4U-1636-53

  15. Numbers The atoll source 4U 1636-53 (Rough “fit by eye”, in the Schwarzschild case, where the relations coincide.)

  16. Numbers – fits and resulting parameters The atoll source 4U 1636-53

  17. Extension – non geodesics correction Figs on this page:nasa.gov

  18. Multiresonant orbital model with non geodesics correction The discussed geodesic relations provide fits which are in good qualitative agreement with general trend observed in the neutron star kHz QPO data . No one of this relations provides really good fits (we checked for the other five atoll sources, that trends are same as for 4U 1636-53) with realistic values of mass and angular momentum with respect to the present knowledge of the neutron star equations of state To check whether some non geodesic influence can resolve the problem above we consider the assumption that the effective frequency of radial oscillations may be lowered, e.g., by the hotspots interaction with the accretion diskor with the neutron star magnetic field. Then, in the possible lowest order approximation, the effective frequency of radial oscillations may be written as where k is a small konstant.

  19. Corrected radial epicyclic frequency corresponds to more realistic values of mass Correctéd Total precesssion model gives minimum of χ2 with non zero angular momentum

  20. Total precession model with non geodesics correction

  21. Summary Multiresonant orbital model of QPOs provide fits which are in good qualitative agreement with general trend observed in the neutron star kHz QPO data. For realy satisfactory fit we have to consider non geodesics correction. In zero aproximation we introduce corrected radial epicyclic frequency. Stellaand Total precession model with non geodesic correction provides better fits and more realistic values of mass andangular momentum.
