Composition, collimation, contamination: the jet of Cygnus X-1
Sebastian Heinz
We model the observed size and brightness of the VLBA radio core of the jet in Cygnus X-1 to derive an expression for the jet power as a function of basic jet parameters. We apply…
Estimating the kinetic luminosity function of jets from Galactic X-ray binaries
S. Heinz, H. -J. Grimm
By combining the recently derived X-ray luminosity function for Galactic X-ray binaries (XRBs) by Grimm et al. (2002) and the radio-X-ray-mass relation of accreting black holes fou…
A dark jet dominates the power output of the stellar black hole Cygnus X-1
E. Gallo, R. Fender, C. Kaiser +4
Accreting black holes are thought to emit the bulk of their power in the X-ray band by releasing the gravitational potential energy of the infalling matter. At the same time, they…
Heating the bubbly gas of galaxy clusters with weak shocks and sound waves
S. Heinz, E. Churazov
Using hydrodynamic simulations and a technique to extract the rotational component of the velocity field, we show how bubbles of relativistic gas inflated by AGN jets in galaxy clu…
Is the `IR Coincidence' Just That?
Michael Nowak, Joern Wilms, Sebastian Heinz +3
(Abridged) Motch (1985) suggested that in the hard state of GX 339-4 the soft X-ray power-law extrapolated backward in energy agrees with the IR flux. Corbel & Fender (2002) showed…
