Radio flares and X-ray hardening embedded in the long soft state of 4U 1543-475
Zuobin Zhang, Rob Fender, Jiachen Jiang +14
We present a comprehensive multi-wavelength study of the black hole X-ray binary 4U 1543-475 during its 2021 outburst, focusing on radio flaring episodes that are commonly interpre…
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…
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…
Variability of X-ray polarization of Cyg X-1
Vadim Kravtsov, Anastasiia Bocharova, Alexandra Veledina +31
We present the results of a three-year X-ray, optical, and radio polarimetric monitoring campaign of the prototypical black hole X-ray binary Cyg X-1, conducted from 2022 to 2024.…
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…
