Broadband X-ray Spectra of GX 339-4 and the Geometry of Accreting Black Holes in the Hard State
John A. Tomsick, Emrah Kalemci, Philip Kaaret +6
A major question in the study of black hole binaries involves our understanding of the accretion geometry when the sources are in the hard state. In this state, the X-ray energy sp…
Tracing the jet contribution to the mid-IR over the 2005 outburst of GRO J1655-40 via broadband spectral modeling
S. Migliari, J. A. Tomsick, S. Markoff +6
We present new results from a multi-wavelength (radio/infrared/optical/X-ray) study of the black hole X-ray binary GRO J1655-40 during its 2005 outburst. We detected, for the first…
Multi-wavelength observations of the 2002 outburst of GX 339-4: two patterns of X-ray-optical/near-infrared behavior
Jeroen Homan, Michelle Buxton, Sera Markoff +3
(Abridged) We report on RXTE and optical/near-infrared (nIR) observations of the black hole transient GX 339-4, made over a time span of 8 months in 2002 and covering the initial r…
The 2002 Outburst of the Black-Hole X-ray Binary 4U 1543-47: Optical and Infrared Light Curves
M. M. Buxton, C. D. Bailyn
We have obtained simultaneous optical and near infrared observations of 4U 1543-47 during its 2002 outburst. The most striking feature of the outburst light curve is the secondary…
Optical and X-ray observations of the neutron star soft X-ray transient XTE J1709-267
P. G. Jonker, D. K. Galloway, J. E. McClintock +3
We report on the discovery of the optical counterpart to the neutron star soft X-ray transient (SXT) XTE J1709-267 in outburst and quiescence. We further report the detection of ty…
Discovery of a supernova associated with GRB 031203: SMARTS Optical-Infrared Lightcurves from 0.2 to 92 days
B. E. Cobb, C. D. Bailyn, P. G. van Dokkum +2
Optical and infrared monitoring of the afterglow site of gamma-ray burst (GRB) 031203 has revealed a brightening source embedded in the host galaxy, which we attribute to the prese…
