Spectropolarimetric detection of baryonic mass loading in a transient relativistic jet: application to the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613
A. K. Hughes, R. P. Fender, G. R. Sivakoff +10
Radio emission during X-ray binary outbursts is dominated by synchrotron radiation from relativistic jets, but is usually studied through total-intensity diagnostics such as flux d…
Observational Biases and Improved Modelling of Off-axis Relativistic Jets
A. J. Cooper, A. P. Scott, L. Rhodes +8
Relativistic Doppler boosting significantly affects the observed emission of astrophysical jets resulting in observational biases. In this work we investigate the observational bia…
Dynamic shocks powered by a wide, relativistic, super-Eddington outflow launched by an accreting neutron star in the mid-20th century
F. J. Cowie, R. P. Fender, I. Heywood +11
Accreting systems can launch powerful outflows which interact with the surrounding medium. We combine new radio observations of the accreting neutron star X-ray binary (XRB) Circin…
Evidence of mutually exclusive outflow forms from a black hole X-ray binary
Zuobin Zhang, Jiachen Jiang, Francesco Carotenuto +13
Accretion onto black holes often leads to the launch of outflows that significantly influence their surrounding environments. The two primary forms of these outflows are X-ray disk…
Relativistic precessing jets powered by an accreting neutron star
F. J. Cowie, R. P. Fender, I. Heywood +9
Precessing relativistic jets launched by compact objects are rarely directly measured, and present an invaluable opportunity to better understand many features of astrophysical jet…
A relativistic jet from a neutron star breaking out of its natal supernova remnant
K. V. S. Gasealahwe, K. Savard, I. M. Monageng +10
The young neutron star X-ray binary, Cir X-1, resides within its natal supernova remnant and experiences ongoing outbursts every 16.5 days, likely due to periastron passage in an e…
A Multi-wavelength Characterization of the 2023 Outburst of MAXI J1807+132: Manifestations of Disk Instability and Jet Emission
Sandeep K. Rout, M. Cristina Baglio, Andrew Hughes +19
Several phenomenological aspects of low-luminosity neutron star transients, such as atolls, remain poorly understood. One such source, MAXI J1807+132, entered its latest outburst i…
Jets from a stellar-mass black hole are as relativistic as those from supermassive black holes
Xian Zhang, Wenfei Yu, Francesco Carotenuto +15
Relativistic jets from supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei are amongst the most powerful phenomena in the universe, acting to regulate the growth of massive galaxies…
Blast waves and reverse shocks: from ultra-relativistic GRBs to moderately relativistic X-ray binaries
James H. Matthews, Alex J. Cooper, Lauren Rhodes +8
Blast wave models are commonly used to model relativistic outflows from ultra-relativistic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), but are also applied to lower Lorentz factor ejections from X-ra…
Multi-band study of the flaring mode emission in the transitional millisecond pulsar PSR J1023+0038
M. C. Baglio, F. Coti Zelati, A. K. Hughes +17
We present a comprehensive study of the flaring mode of the transitional millisecond pulsar (tMSP) PSR J1023+0038 during its X-ray sub-luminous state, using strictly simultaneous X…
Peculiar radio-bright behaviour of the Galactic black hole transient 4U 1543-47 in the 2021-2023 outburst
X. Zhang, W. Yu, F. Carotenuto +8
Correlated behaviours between the radio emission and the X-ray emission in Galactic black hole X-ray binaries (BH XRBs) in the X-ray hard state are crucial to the understanding of…
Polarized multiwavelength emission from pulsar wind - accretion disk interaction in a transitional millisecond pulsar
M. C. Baglio, F. Coti Zelati, A. Di Marco +17
Transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) bridge the evolutionary gap between accreting neutron stars in low-mass X-ray binaries and millisecond radio pulsars. These systems exhibit…
Spectral features and variable circular polarisation in the radio emission from the pre-cataclysmic variable QS Vir
M. E. Ridder, A. K. Hughes, C. O. Heinke +2
QS Vir is a low-accretion rate cataclysmic variable (CV), or pre-CV, as the M dwarf companion is just filling its Roche lobe. We recently identified radio emission from QS Vir in t…
Radio observations of the 2022 outburst of the transitional Z-Atoll source XTE J1701-462
K. V. S. Gasealahwe, I. M. Monageng, R. P. Fender +6
XTE J1701-462 is a neutron star low mass X-ray binary (NS LMXB) discovered in 2006 as the first system to demonstrate unambiguously that the `Atoll' and `Z' classes of accreting ne…
SAX J1810.8-2609: An Outbursting Neutron Star X-ray Binary with Persistent Spatially Coincident Radio Emission
