Abstract

A recently discovered transient X-ray source, IGR J17177-3656, has received many observations, including a quasi-simultaneous multi-waveband observations. The source is modeled with the coupled accretion-jet model around a black hole. It is found that the multi-waveband spectrum can be successfully modeled with the luminous hot accretion flow (LHAF) rather than advection dominated accretion flow (ADAF). The modeled luminosity is about 5% of the Eddington luminosity, and the source may be as far as 25 kpc. Our detailed modeling result confirms the point that LHAF can explain steep radio-X-ray correlation.
