Searching for the signatures of jet-ISM interactions in X-ray binaries (2008)

Miller-Jones, James, Kaiser, Christian, Maccarone, Tom, Fender, Rob, Kapińska, Anna, Gunn, Katherine, ...

Jets from X-ray binaries are continuously injecting matter and energy into the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM). However, there exist to date relatively few cases where jet-ISM interactions have...

A search for electron cyclotron maser emission from compact binaries (2007)

Ramsay, Gavin, Brocksopp, Catherine, Wu, Kinwah, Slee, Bruce, Saxton, Curtis

Unipolar induction (UI) is a fundamental physical process, which occurs when a conducting body transverses a magnetic field. It has been suggested that UI is operating in RX J0806+15 and RX J1914+24,...

A highly polarised radio jet during the 1998 outburst of the black hole transient XTE J1748-288 (2007)

Brocksopp, Catherine, Miller-Jones, James, Fender, Rob, Stappers, Ben

XTE J1748-288 is a black hole X-ray transient which went into outburst in 1998 June. The X-ray lightcurves showed canonical morphologies, with minor variations on the ``Fast Rise Exponential Decay''...

The discovery outburst of the X-ray transient IGR J17497-2821 observed with RXTE and ATCA (2006)

Rodriguez, Jerome, Bel, Marion Cadolle, Tomsick, John A., Corbel, Stephane, Brocksopp, Catherine, Paizis, Ada, ...

We report the results of a series of RXTE and ATCA observations of the recently-discovered X-ray transient IGR J17497-2821. Our 3-200 keV PCA+HEXTE spectral analysis shows very little variations over...

The 2003 radio outburst of a new X-ray transient : XTE J1720-318 (2005)

Brocksopp, Catherine, Corbel, Stéphane, Fender, Robert P., Rupen, M., Sault, R., Tingay, Steven J., ...

We present radio observations of the black hole X-ray transient XTE J1720−318, which was discovered in 2003 January as it entered an outburst. We analyse the radio data in the context of the X-ray...

Is GRS 1915+105 a microquasar? (2004)

Kaiser, Christian R., Sokoloski, J. L., Gunn, Katherine F., Brocksopp, Catherine

The large mechanical luminosity of the jets of GRS 1915+105 should give rise to luminous emission regions, similar to those observed in radio galaxies, where the jets interact with the gas...

Revision of the properties of the GRS 1915+105 jets: Clues from the large-scale structure (2004)

Kaiser, Christian R., Gunn, Katherine F., Brocksopp, Catherine, Sokoloski, J. L.

The jets of GRS 1915+105 carry a considerable energy away from the central source into the ISM. The similarity of the jets of this source and jets in radio galaxies or radio-loud quasars suggests...

Revision of the Properties of the GRS 1915+105 Jets: Clues from the Large-Scale Structure (2004)

Kaiser, Christian R., Gunn, Katherine F., Brocksopp, Catherine, Sokoloski, Jennifer L.

The jets of GRS 1915+105 carry a considerable energy away from the central source into the interstellar medium (ISM). The similarity of the jets of this source and jets in radio galaxies or...

The 1997 hard state outburst of the X-ray transient GS 1354-64/BW Cir (2001)

Brocksopp, Catherine, Fender, Robert P., Groot, Paul J., Jonker, Peter G., Tingay, Steven J., Van Der Klis, Michael, ...

We present observations of the 1997 outburst of the X-ray transient GS 1354−64 (BW Cir) at X-ray, optical and, for the first time, radio wavelengths; our results include upper limits to the linear...
