Abstract

V originále

We review arguments suggesting that millisecond variability detected in the X-ray ux of LMXBs has its origin in oscillation modes of the accretion disk. The twin high-frequency QPOs observed in microquasars seem to be related to the twin kHz QPOs in neutron-star systems, and both phenomena are likely the result of a non-linear resonance in the accretion disk that is possible only in strongeld gravity.
