Based the Alfven wave oscillation model (AWOM) and relativistic precession model (RPM) for twin kHz QPOs, we estimate the emission positions of most detected kHz QPOs to be at r=18+-3 km (R/15km) except Cir X-1 at r = 30\+-5 km (R/15km). For the proposed Keplerian frequency as an upper limit to kHz QPO, the spin effects in Kerr Spacetime are discussed, which have about a 5% (2%) modification for that of the Schwarzchild case for the spin frequency of 1000 (400) Hz.The application to the four typical QPO sources, Cir X-1, Sco X-1, SAX J1808.4-3658 and XTE 1807-294, is mentioned.

  1. Mapping Quasi-Periodic Oscillations to Lyapunov Exponent across Black Hole Thermodynamic Phase Transitions

    gr-qc 2025-10 reject novelty 4.0

    For a nonminimally coupled magnetic AdS black hole, the Lyapunov exponent and QPO frequencies both reproduce the swallowtail branch structure of the Van der Waals-like thermodynamic phase transition.
