JWST/MIRI Spectroscopy of the Quiescent Black Hole X-ray Binary XTE J1118+480: Constraints on Jet and Circumbinary Dust Contributions to the Mid-infrared Emission
Zihao Zuo, Elena Gallo, Nuria Calvet +9
We report on JWST/MIRI low-resolution spectroscopy (-m) and imaging (-m) of the black hole X-ray binary XTE~J1118+480 in quiescence, at an X-ray luminosity nine…
The Demographics of Sagittarius A* X-ray Flares over 25 Years with Chandra
Zach Sumners, Nicole M. Ford, Daryl Haggard +10
We present the Chandra 25-year Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) X-ray flare catalog: a systematic analysis of 6.8 Ms of Sgr A* monitoring spanning the Chandra X-ray Observatory's mission li…
Infrared Line Diagnostics Fail to Constrain Sgr A*'s UV Output
Mayura Balakrishnan, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Daryl Haggard +11
Sgr A*, the 4 x supermassive black hole at the Galactic Center, exhibits frequent flaring with X-ray luminosities of erg s, while i…
Detection and Evolution of Linear Polarization of the Galactic Center Transient MAXI J1744-294
Joseph M. Michail, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Mayura Balakrishnan +14
MAXI J1744294, likely a low-mass X-ray binary system, is a Galactic-center transient source, detected at radio and X-ray wavelengths, located approximately southeast of S…
A Therapy Session with Sgr A*
Mayura Balakrishnan, Robert Frazier, Joseph Michail
The nature of Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) has been the subject of intense study and debate for over half a century. Herein, we present the first successful interview with an astrophysi…
Simultaneous JWST, NuSTAR, and VLA Monitoring of Sgr A*: A Unified Picture of the Variable IR, X-ray and Radio Emission
F. Yusef-Zadeh, M. Wardle, R. G. Arendt +5
Flux variability is a fundamental channel of information from Sgr A* because of its direct probe of processes occurring within an accretion disk under strong gravity. We present si…
First Mid-infrared Detection and Modeling of a Flare from Sgr A*. II. Mid-IR Spectral Energy Distribution and Millimeter Polarimetry
Joseph M. Michail, Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Garrett K. Keating +20
S. D. von Fellenberg et al. (2025a, Paper I) reported the first mid-infrared detection of a flare from Sgr A*. The JWST/MIRI/MRS observations were consistent with an orbiting hotsp…
Gone with the Wind: JWST-MIRI Unveils a Strong Outflow from the Quiescent Stellar-Mass Black Hole A0620-00
Zihao Zuo, Gabriele Cugno, Joseph Michail +15
We present new observations of the black hole X-ray binary A0620-00 using the Mid-Infrared Instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope, during a state where the X-ray luminosity i…
G359.13142-0.20005: A steep spectrum radio pulsar candidate with an X-ray counterpart running into the Galactic Center Snake (G359.1-0.2)
F. Yusef-Zadeh, Jun-Hui Zhao, R. Arendt +5
The Snake is a remarkable Galactic center radio filament with a morphology characterized by two kinks along its extent. The major and minor kinks are located where the f…
