Spectral/timing evolution of black-hole binaries
arXiv:1001.0676 · doi:10.1063/1.3475157
Abstract
I briefly outline the state-paradigm that has emerged from the study of black-hole binaries with RossiXTE. This is the starting point of a number of studies that address the connection between accretion and jet ejection and the physical nature of the hard spectral components in these systems.
