The nature of the Island and Banana States in Atoll sources and a Unified Model for Low Mass X-ray Binaries

M. J. Church, A. Gibiec, M. Balucinska-Church

We propose an explanation of the Island and Banana states and the relation between Atoll and Z-track sources, constituting a unified model for Low Mass X-ray Binaries (LMXB). We fi…

Radio and X-ray observations of jet ejection in Cygnus X-2

R. E. Spencer, A. P. Rushton, M. Balucinska-Church +5

The ejection of a relativistic jet has been observed in the luminous Galactic low mass X-ray binary Cygnus X-2. Using high resolution radio observations, a directly resolved ejecti…

A review of the Z-track sources

M. J. Church, M. Balucinska-Church

The brightest class of low mass X-ray binary source: the Z-track sources are reviewed specifically with regard to the nature of the three distinct states of the sources. A physical…

Dipping in Cygnus X-2 in a multi-wavelength campaign due to absorption of extended ADC emission

M. Balucinska-Church, N. S. Schulz, J. Wilms +5

We report results of one-day simultaneous multiwavelength observations of Cygnus X-2 using XMM, Chandra, the European VLBI Network and the XMM Optical Monitor. During the observati…

On the nature of the Cygnus X-2 like Z-track sources

M. Balucinska-Church, A. Gibiec, N. K. Jackson +1

Based on the results of applying the extended ADC emission model for low mass X-ray binaries to three Z-track sources: GX340+0, GX5-1 and CygX-2, we propose an explanation of the C…

Neutral versus ionized absorber as an explanation of the X-ray dippers

M. Balucinska-Church, M. J. Church, T. Dotani +1

We present results of the Suzaku observation of the dipping, periodically bursting low mass X-ray binary XB 1323-619 in which we concentrate of the spectral evolution in dipping in…
