A review of quasi-periodic oscillations from black hole X-ray binaries: observation and theory

AR Ingram, SE Motta - New Astronomy Reviews, 2019 - Elsevier
Black hole and neutron star X-ray binary systems routinely show quasi-periodic oscillations
(QPOs) in their X-ray flux. Despite being strong, easily measurable signals, their physical …

Relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei and microquasars

GE Romero, M Boettcher, S Markoff… - Space Science Reviews, 2017 - Springer
Collimated outflows (jets) appear to be a ubiquitous phenomenon associated with the
accretion of material onto a compact object. Despite this ubiquity, many fundamental physics …

A catalogue of low-mass X-ray binaries in the Galaxy, LMC, and SMC

QZ Liu, J Van Paradijs… - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2007 - aanda.org
We present a new edition of the catalogue of the low-mass X-ray binaries in the Galaxy and
the Magellanic Clouds. The catalogue contains source name (s), coordinates, finding chart …

The 'universal'radio/X-ray flux correlation: the case study of the black hole GX 339− 4

S Corbel, M Coriat, C Brocksopp… - Monthly Notices of …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
The existing radio and X-ray flux correlation for Galactic black holes in the hard and
quiescent states relies on a sample which is mostly dominated by two sources (GX 339− 4 …

Nebular emission from young stellar populations including binary stars

M Lecroq, S Charlot, A Bressan… - Monthly Notices of …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
We investigate the nebular emission produced by young stellar populations using the new
galsevn model based on the combination of the sevn population-synthesis code including …

Black hole transients

TM Belloni, SE Motta, T Muñoz-Darias - arXiv preprint arXiv:1109.3388, 2011 - arxiv.org
Sixteen years of observations of black hole transients with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer,
complemented by other X-ray observatories and ground-based optical/infrared/radio …

The radio/X-ray domain of black hole X-ray binaries at the lowest radio luminosities

E Gallo, JCA Miller-Jones, DM Russell… - Monthly Notices of …, 2014 - academic.oup.com
We report on deep, coordinated radio and X-ray observations of the black hole X-ray binary
XTE J1118+ 480 in quiescence. The source was observed with the Karl G. Jansky Very …

Rapid X-ray variability

M Van der Klis - Cambridge Astrophysics Series, 2006 - cambridge.org
One of the principal motivations for studying X-ray binaries is that accretion onto neutron
stars and black holes provides a unique window on the physics of strong gravity and dense …

The luminous, hard state can't be MAD

PC Fragile, K Chatterjee, A Ingram… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We present a straightforward argument for why the luminous, hard state of black hole X-ray
binaries (BHXRBs) cannot always be associated with a magnetically arrested accretion disc …

Multiwavelength observations of the 2002 outburst of gx 339–4: two patterns of x-ray-optical/near-infrared behavior
