A Real-Time Jet Laboratory in Swift J1727.8-1613

Callan M. Wood, James C. A. Miller-Jones, Arash Bahramian +16

We present the results of our intensive VLBI campaign on the black-hole low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) Swift J1727.8-1613 during its 2023-2024 outburst. We observed the repeated quen…

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…

Constraining the Jet Energetics of the Transient X-ray Binaries MAXI J1348-630 and MAXI J1820+070 through Calorimetry

Pau Bosch-Cabot, Alexandra J. Tetarenko, Erik Rosolowsky +6

We present Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations aimed at identifying potential jet-ISM interaction sites in the vicinity of the transient black hole X-r…

Catalog of outbursts of neutron star LMXBs

Craig O. Heinke, Junwen Zheng, Thomas J. Maccarone +4

Many X-ray binaries are transiently accreting. Having statistics on their recurrence times is helpful to address questions related to binary evolution and populations, as well as t…

Infrared Synchrotron Emission in the Soft State of GX 339-4 and the Mid-Infrared/X-ray Luminosity Plane of Black Hole X-ray Binaries

P. Gandhi, D. M. Russell, M. C. Baglio +33

Progress in understanding the growth of accreting black holes remains hampered by a lack of sensitive coordinated multiwavelength observations. In particular, the mid-infrared (MIR…

A New Mechanism for ULF Wave Modulation of Energetic Electron Precipitation

L. Olifer, D. Zhou, M. Patel +20

The May 2024 geomagnetic superstorm provided the opportunity to explore how strong wave-particle interactions affect energetic electron precipitation under intense driving. Using c…
