Scientific paper

Using an extensive analysis made with RXTE/PCA, we studied the behaviour of spectral parameters (such as internal radius and power law photon index) and timing ones (such as 1-10 Hz Quasi Periodic Oscillation) in the galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105. This analysis led to a strong correlation between power law photon index and centroid frequency of the 1-10 Hz QPO. The correlation shows a non monotonic behaviour which can't be explained in terms of simple QPO production models. From published data, we found a similar correlation in other BHCs. We discuss our results and their implication on the region of production of the QPO.
