Using the observational data to investigate the
accretion physics in RQ AGN, and constrain on
accretion model. We also compare it with RL AGN in
order to study underlying physics in accretion model.
Motivation

1) disk-corona model in AGN
In luminous AGN and quasars ,their SED indicates coexistence of hot gas and cool gas. The UV/optical emission arises from geometrically thin and optically thick cold disk (Shakura&Sunyeav ,1973,A&A). The soft photons from the disk collide with the hot electrons in corona, emitting in X-ray( Liu,B.F.et al.2002,ApJL).
2) X-ray emission The dependence of X-ray emission on black hole mass
and accretion rate can be different according to different accretion models (Narayan& Yi ,1994;Merloni &Fabian 2002;Merloni et al.2003;Wang,J.M. et al ,2004; Brandon et al.astro-ph/0801.2383v1)

The Eddington ratio ranges from 10^-2.5 to1.0,Most of them have strong disk radiation.

Spearman’s rank coefficient
ρ= - 0.171 , p=0.008
Assuming that the hard X-ray comes from corona , the correlation represents that the corona relative to disk becomes weaker as the Eddington ratio increases. Actually, the X-ray becomes softer as the increase of the accretion ( Lu&Yu ,1999,ApJL).
P is the two-sided significance of its deviation from zero ,less than 0.05 means a significant correlation

ρ= 0.002 P=0.969
There is no correlation between log(L_x/L_bol) and log( M_BH), implying that the accretion physics for AGN is similar in a large range of black hole mass. This could be extrapolated to BHXB.

For RL AGNs, there is no significant correlation between log(L_x/L_bol) and Eddington ratio, it is different from RQ. This may be because the hard X-ray in RL AGNs is affected by jet.
There is also no correlation between log(L_x/L_bol) and the mass of BH.

Comparing with X-ray of 0.1-2.4 keV
The correlation is different from the hard X-ray , maybe the disk contributes a significant fraction
on X-ray(0.1-2.4 keV).

![Page 13: Investigating the relation of corona and disk from a blue AGN sample Liu, Jieying Yunnan Astronomical Observatory, CAS 第三届黑洞天体物理前沿问题年度研讨会 (2008),SHAO](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081420/5697bf811a28abf838c851af/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
1. Both radio-loud and radio-quiet AGNs , logL_x/L_bol
( hard X-ray) is no correlate with log(M_BH). This
implying that the accretion physics for AGN is similar
in a large range of black hole mass. This could be
extrapolated to BHXB.
2. logL_x/L_bol decreases with the increase of
log(L_bol/L_Edd) for RQ AGNs. It is different with RL
AGNs.
3. Different from the hard X-ray ,the X-ray of 0.1-
2.4 keV may be connected with the disk radiation.
