Localised thermonuclear bursts from accreting magnetic white dwarfs
S. Scaringi, P. J. Groot, C. Knigge +16
Nova explosions are caused by global thermonuclear runaways triggered in the surface layers of accreting white dwarfs. It has been predicted that localised thermonuclear bursts on…
21 new long-term variables in the GX 339-4 field: two years of MeerKAT monitoring
L. N. Driessen, B. W. Stappers, E. Tremou +14
We present 21 new long-term variable radio sources found commensally in two years of weekly MeerKAT monitoring of the low-mass X-ray binary GX 339-4. The new sources vary on time s…
The black hole transient MAXI J1348-630: evolution of the compact and transient jets during its 2019/2020 outburst
F. Carotenuto, S. Corbel, E. Tremou +14
We present the radio and X-ray monitoring campaign of the 2019/2020 outburst of MAXI J1348-630, a new black hole X-ray binary (XRB) discovered in 2019 January. We observed MAXI J13…
Science with an ngVLA: Accretion and Jets in Local Compact Objects
Deanne L. Coppejans, James C. A. Miller-Jones, Elmar G. Koerding +2
Despite the prevalence of jets in accreting systems and their impact on the surrounding medium, the fundamental physics of how they are launched and collimated is not fully underst…
Sco X-1 revisited with Kepler, MAXI and HERMES: outflows, time-lags and echoes unveiled
S. Scaringi, T. J. Maccarone, R. I. Hynes +5
Sco X-1 has been the subject of many multi-wavelength studies in the past, being the brightest persistent extra-solar X-ray source ever observed. Here we revisit Sco X-1 with simul…
The physics of accretion-ejection with LOFT
P. Casella, R. Fender, M. Coriat +29
This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…
