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…

The First X-Ray Polarimetry of an Eclipsing Low-Mass X-Ray Binary: Serendipitous IXPE Observation of AX J1745.6-2901

Romana Mikušincová, Lorenzo Marra, Hemanth Manikantan +38

We present the first X-ray polarimetric measurement of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary system AX J1745.6-2901 conducted by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) sate…

The peculiar hard state behaviour of the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613

A. K. Hughes, F. Carotenuto, T. D. Russell +37

Tracking the correlation between radio and X-ray luminosities during black hole X-ray binary outbursts is a key diagnostic of the coupling between accretion inflows (traced by X-ra…

Comprehensive Radio Monitoring of the Black Hole X-ray Binary Swift J1727.81613 during its 20232024 Outburst

Andrew K. Hughes, Francesco Carotenuto, Thomas D. Russell +39

This work presents comprehensive multi-frequency radio monitoring of the black hole low-mass X-ray binary Swift J1727.81613, which underwent its first recorded outburst after it…

The very high X-ray polarisation of accreting black hole IGRJ17091-3624 in the hard state

Melissa Ewing, Maxime Parra, Guglielmo Mastroserio +26

We report the first detection of the X-ray polarisation of the transient black hole X-ray binary IGRJ17091-3624 taken with the Imaging X-ray polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) in March 20…

A new pulsating neutron star in the Ultraluminous X-ray source NGC 4559 X7?

F. Pintore, C. Pinto, G. Rodriguez-Castillo +17

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULX) are extragalactic objects with X-ray luminosities above the Eddington limit for a 10 Msun black hole (BH). ULXs may host super-Eddington accreting…
