Bright mini-outburst ends the 12-year long activity of the black hole candidate Swift J1753.5-0127

Guobao Zhang, F. Bernardini, D. M. Russell +16

We present optical, UV and X-ray monitoring of the short orbital period black hole X-ray binary candidate Swift J1753.5-0127, focusing on the final stages of its 12year long out…

Events leading up to the June 2015 outburst of V404 Cyg

F. Bernardini, D. M. Russell, A. W. Shaw +5

On 2015 June 15 the burst alert telescope (BAT) on board {\em Swift} detected an X-ray outburst from the black hole transient V404 Cyg. We monitored V404 Cyg for the last 10 years…

The physics of accretion-ejection with LOFT

P. Casella, R. Fender, M. Coriat +29

This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…

Limits on the quiescent radio emission from the black hole binaries GRO J1655-40 and XTE J1550-564

D. E. Calvelo, R. P. Fender, D. M. Russell +6

We present the results of radio observations of the black hole binaries GRO J1655-40 and XTE J1550-564 in quiescence, with the upgraded Australia Telescope Compact Array. Neither s…

No evidence for black hole spin powering of jets in X-ray binaries

Rob Fender, Elena Gallo, David Russell

In this paper we take the reported measurements of black hole spin for black hole X-ray binaries, and compare them against measurements of jet power and speed across all accretion…
