We report on quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the black hole cand
idate GRS 1915+105 seen in 31 observations made by the Proportional Co
unter Array on board the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer. We distinguish t
hree different types: a QPO with constant centroid frequency of 67 Hz,
a dynamic low-frequency (10(-3)-10 Hz) QPO with a large variety of am
plitudes and widths, and high-amplitude ''sputters'' at frequencies of
10(-3)-10(-1) Hz that are among the most extreme X-ray variations eve
r seen. We discuss the 67 Hz QPO on the assumption that it arises in t
he inner accretion disk of a black hole binary. If this QPO represents
the rotation frequency of the innermost stable orbit around a nonrota
ting black here, then the implied mass is 33 M.. An alternative interp
retation of this QPO as g-mode oscillations in the inner disk (Nowak e
t al. 1996) implies a black hole mass of 10 M.. Four selected QPOs at
lower frequencies (0.067-1.8 Hz) are tracked continuously in five ener
gy bands. The QPO-folded profiles are mostly sinusoidal. Remarkably, a
ll four investigated QPOs are broadened in frequency by a random walk
in oscillation phase. At higher photon energies the QPO profiles show
larger amplitude and increasing phase lag. Our QPO profile analysis sh
ows that the phase delays are not caused by scattering effects, and we
discuss a more direct relation between these QPOs and the origin of t
he hard X-ray spectrum. There are at least three general shapes of the
broadband power continuum, with a typical persistence time scale of s
everal weeks. The combined characteristics of the power spectra, light
curves, and energy spectra during the period between 1996 February 21
and 1996 August 15 are interpreted as a succession of four different
emission states. None of these states appears identical to any of the
canonical states of black hole binaries.
