Abstract
FERNANDEZ-HERNANDEZ, L. M and URENA-LOPEZ, L. A. Determinación del espín de agujeros negros. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2007, vol.53, suppl.4, pp.46-50. ISSN 0035-001X.
We present a summary of the theory of accretion disks around black holes. In the regime of linear perturbation, we find the normal modes of vibration of the accretion disk that modulate the emission of X-ray bursts. An example is shown for the determination of the mass and spin of a particular black hole candidate.
Keywords : Black holes; accretion disks.
