A jet bent by a stellar wind in the black hole X-ray binary Cygnus X-1

Steve Prabu, James C. A. Miller-Jones, Arash Bahramian +7

Jets provide an important channel for kinetic feedback from accreting black holes into their environment, without which models of the formation of large-scale structure in the univ…

On the distance to the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613

Benjamin J. Burridge, James C. A. Miller-Jones, Arash Bahramian +11

We review the existing distance estimates to the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613, present new radio and near-UV spectra to update the distance constraints, and discuss…

A Near-Field Treatment of Aperture Synthesis Techniques using the Murchison Widefield Array

Steve Prabu, Steven J. Tingay, Andrew Williams

Typical radio interferometer observations are performed assuming the source of radiation to be in the far-field of the instrument, resulting in a two-dimensional Fourier relationsh…
