Properties of WNh stars in the Small Magellanic Cloud: evidence for homogeneous evolution
F. Martins, D. J. Hillier, J. C. Bouret +4
We derive the physical properties of three WNh stars in the SMC to constrain stellar evolution beyond the main sequence at low metallicity and to investigate the metallicity depend…
A Global Energetic Model for Microquasars (GEMM): A rich and consistent disk+jet solution
C. Foellmi, P. -O. Petrucci, J. Ferreira +1
Based on a dynamical model describing how stationary, powerful and self-collimated jets are being launched from a magnetized disk, we build a consistent disk+jet microquasar pictur…
A Global Energetic Model for Microquasars: preliminary results and spectral energy distributions
C. Foellmi, P. -O. Petrucci, J. Ferreira +2
We present preliminary results and observables from a model of microquasar based on a theoretical framework where stationary, powerful, compact jets are launched and then accelerat…
Multi-wavelength observations of Galactic hard X-ray sources discovered by INTEGRAL. I. The nature of the companion star
Sylvain Chaty, Farid Rahoui, Cédric Foellmi +3
Context: The INTEGRAL hard X-ray observatory has revealed an emerging population of highly obscured X-ray binary systems through multi-wavelength observations. Previous studies hav…
Are the distances of galactic microquasars reliable?
C. Foellmi
We review some specific and quantitative issues in popular methods used to determine the distance of galactic objects, in the context of the microquasars GRO J1655-40 and 1A 0620-0…
Bisectors as Distance Estimators for Microquasars?
C. Foellmi
We present a new and exploratory method to estimate the distance of microquasars by suggesting an empirical correlation between the bluemost point of the bisector of the cross-corr…
