Accreting Neutron Stars in Low-Mass X-ray Binaries

M. C. Baglio, S. E. Motta, A. P. Nitindala +1

Neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries (NS LMXBs) are systems in which a neutron star accretes matter from a Roche-lobe-filling companion via an accretion disc, releasing gravitation…

Very Long Baseline Interferometry with the SKA Observatory

J. F. Radcliffe, J. Yang, Z. Paragi +129

Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) is a fundamental technique that combines signals from telescopes separated by thousands of kilometres to obtain some of the highest-resolut…

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…

Transforming X-ray Binary Astrophysics with SKA+VLBI

Tao An, Ailing Wang, James C. A. Miller-Jones +6

X-ray binaries (XRBs) are unique laboratories where accretion, jets, strong gravity and magnetic fields can be probed on humanly tractable timescales. The phased SKA-Mid operating…

Accreting Compact Object Binaries with the SKA

Aru Beri, Francesco Carotenuto, Rob P. Fender +4

Accreting binary systems provide a time-resolved view of the accretion and ejection processes that are seen in all classes of compact objects, from stellar-mass to supermassive. Th…

The link between obscured accretion and mildly relativistic precessing jets

Rob Fender, Sara Motta

We have recently shown evidence that the most relativistic jets (with Lorentz factor >2) from stellar-mass black holes in X-ray binary systems may be locked to a fixed axis, likely…

On The Nature of Einstein Probe Transient EP250916a: Insights from X-ray, Optical, and Radio Observations

Gaurava K. Jaisawal, Giulia Illiano, Francesco Carotenuto +7

We report multi-wavelength studies of the transient EP250916a, detected by the Einstein Probe on 2025 September 16. Located at low Galactic latitude, the source exhibited a rapid X…

The Homogeneous MeerKAT and Swift/XRT X-ray Binary Radio:X-ray Plane

Justine Crook-Mansour, Rob Fender, Andrew Hughes +22

During the hard and quiescent spectral states in X-ray binaries, a non-linear correlation is observed between radio and X-ray luminosities, providing a valuable tool to probe the c…

Multi-wavelength outburst activity from EP J174942.2-384834: a very faint X-ray transient discovered by Einstein Probe

F. Coti Zelati, A. Marino, Y. L. Wang +27

We report the discovery and multi-wavelength characterization of the Galactic transient EP J174942.2384834, first detected by the Einstein Probe during a faint X-ray outburst in…

A persistent bow shock in a diskless magnetised accreting white dwarf

Krystian Ilkiewicz, Simone Scaringi, Domitilla de Martino +9

Stellar bow shocks are formed when an outflow interacts with the interstellar medium. In white dwarfs accreting from a binary companion, outflows are associated with either strong…

Exploring the potential for ultra-relativistic jets in Scorpius X-1 with low angular resolution radio observations

I. Stephens, L. Rhodes, A. J. Cooper +2

Scorpius X-1 (Sco X-1) is a neutron star X-ray binary in which the neutron star is accreting rapidly from a low mass stellar companion. At radio frequencies, Sco X-1 is highly lumi…

Large-scale radio bubbles around the black hole transient V4641 Sgr

Noa Grollimund, Stéphane Corbel, Rob Fender +7

Black holes (BHs) in microquasars can launch powerful relativistic jets that have the capacity to travel up to several parsecs from the compact object and interact with the interst…
