Abstract
AbstractIt is still controversial whether the x‐ray emissions of strong radio black hole sources (e.g., blazars and FR Is) are from a jet‐dominated flow or from an accretion disc. Previous studies have suggested that the radio–x‐ray correlation is clearly different when the x‐ray luminosity is higher or lower than a critical value, , where is the Eddington luminosity. When the black hole transient sources stay in quiescent state (), the radio–x‐ray correlation presented a steeper slope (). In this work, we constructed a strong radio sample, including blazars and FR Is with a wide x‐ray luminosity distribution () to re‐explore this issue. An obvious change in radio–x‐ray correlations is not found when the x‐ray luminosity and . And the radio–x‐ray correlation and the fundamental plane of black hole activity for strong radio sources follow a slope with . These results imply x‐ray emissions of strong radio black hole sources have similar physics and can be well explained by a jet‐dominated flow.
