A Clean Sightline to Quiescence: Multiwavelength Observations of the High Galactic Latitude Black Hole X-ray Binary Swift J1357.2-0933

Richard M. Plotkin, Elena Gallo, Peter G. Jonker +9

We present coordinated multiwavelength observations of the high Galactic latitude (b=+50 deg) black hole X-ray binary (XRB) J1357.2-0933 in quiescence. Our broadband spectrum inclu…

BlackCAT: A catalogue of stellar-mass black holes in X-ray transients

Jesus M. Corral-Santana, Jorge Casares, Teo Munoz-Darias +3

During the last ~50 years, the population of black hole candidates in X-ray binaries has increased considerably with 59 Galactic objects detected in transient low-mass X-ray binari…

A connection between plasma conditions near black hole event horizons and outflow properties

K. I. I. Koljonen, D. M. Russell, J. A. Fernández Ontiveros +9

Accreting black holes are responsible for producing the fastest, most powerful outflows of matter in the Universe. The formation process of powerful jets close to black holes is po…

Detection of the first infra-red quasi periodic oscillation in a black hole X-ray binary

M. Kalamkar, P. Casella, P. Uttley +5

We present analysis of fast variability of Very Large Telescope/ISAAC (infra-red), \textit{XMM-Newton}/OM (optical) and EPIC-pn (X-ray), and RXTE/PCA (X-ray) observations of the bl…

Correlated optical, X-ray, and gamma-ray flaring activity seen with INTEGRAL during the 2015 outburst of V404 Cygni

J. Rodriguez, M. Cadolle Bel, J. Alfonso-Garzón +20

After 25 years of quiescence, the microquasar V404 Cyg entered a new period of activity in June 2015. This X-ray source is known to undergo extremely bright and variable outbursts…

Radio polarimetry as a probe of unresolved jets: the 2013 outburst of XTE J1908+094

P. A. Curran, J. C. A. Miller-Jones, A. P. Rushton +21

XTE J1908+094 is an X-ray transient black hole candidate in the Galactic plane that was observed in outburst in 2002 and 2013. Here we present multi-frequency radio and X-ray data,…
