The relativistic precession model for quasi periodic oscillations, QPOs, in low mass X-ray binaries is reviewed. The behaviour of three simultaneous types of QPOs is well matched in terms of the fundamental frequencies for geodesic motion…

We describe kHz QPOs from the hydrodynamical model of accretion disks for LMXB systems. Out of the pair, the higher frequency originates due to the viscous effects of an accretion disk involving the formation of shock, while the lower one…

Low Frequency Quasi-Periodic Oscillations or LF QPOs are ubiquitous in BH X-ray binaries and provide strong constraints on the accretion-ejection processes. Although several models have been proposed so far, none has been proven to…
