The disc-jet connection in GRS 1915+105
M. Klein-Wolt, R. P. Fender, G. G. Pooley +4
We have compared simultaneous Ryle Telescope (RT) radio and Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) X-ray observations of the galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105. We find that radio emiss…
The Relativistic Astrophysics Explorer: A New Mission for X-Ray Timing
P. Kaaret, J. Grindlay, F. K. Lamb +3
The great success of the Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) has given us a new probe to study strong gravitational fields and to measure the physical properties of black holes and…
QPOs and Spectral States in GRS 1915+105
Michael P. Muno, Edward H. Morgan, Ronald A. Remillard
We present results from the analysis of X-ray energy spectra and quasi- periodic oscillations (QPOs) from a set of observations which samples a broad range of time variability in G…
X-ray Nova XTE J1550-564: Discovery of a QPO Near 185 Hz
R. A. Remillard, J. E. McClintock, G. J. Sobczak +4
We have investigated the X-ray timing properties of XTE J1550-564 during 60 RXTE PCA observations made between 1998 September 18 and November 28. We detect quasi-periodic oscillati…
Peak Luminosities of Bursts from GRO J1744-28 measured with the RXTE PCA
K. Jahoda, M. J. Stark, T. E. Strohmayer +3
GRO J1744-28, discovered by BATSE in December 95, is the second neutron star system known to produce frequent accretion powered bursts. The system has been regularly monitored with…
Multifrequency Observations of the Galactic Microquasars GRS1915+105 and GROJ1655-40
Ronald A. Remillard, Edward H. Morgan, Jeffrey E. McClintock +3
The two galactic `microquasars' with superluminal radio jets have been quite active during 1996, generatinga variety of studies involving both NASA and ground-based observatories.…
