The high-energy probability distribution of accretion disc luminosity fluctuations
<p>The probability density function of accretion disc luminosity fluctuations at high observed energies (i.e. energies larger than the peak temperature scale of the disc) is derived, under the assumption that the temperature fluctuations are lognormally distributed. Thin disc theory is used th...
