Why do massive stars form bow shocks? Bulk ISM motion as the main driver of bow shock formation and geometry
J. van den Eijnden, L. Kaper
Bow shocks are one the most commonly observed impact sites of massive star feedback. Their existence is often taken as evidence of the supersonic motion or even runaway nature of t…
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…
Detection of an Extremely Luminous Radio Counterpart to the Be/X-ray Binary A0538-66
Justine Crook-Mansour, Rob Fender, Alex Andersson +14
We present the discovery of radio emission from the Be/X-ray binary A0538-66 with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), and results from a subsequent weekly mon…
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…
Low-frequency spectra of neutron star + OB supergiant binaries: Does wind density drive persistent and flaring modes of accretion?
J. van den Eijnden, L. Sidoli, M. DÃaz Trigo +10
Neutron star high-mass X-ray binaries are well-studied in wavebands between the infrared and hard X-rays. Their low-frequency millimeter and radio properties, on the other hand, re…
