A MeerKAT view of the parsec-scale jets in the black-hole X-ray binary GRS 1758-258

I. Mariani, S. E. Motta, P. Atri +5

Jets from accreting black hole (BH) X-ray binaries (XRBs) are powerful outflows that release a large fraction of the accretion energy to the surrounding environment, providing a fe…

Relativistic precessing jets powered by an accreting neutron star

F. J. Cowie, R. P. Fender, I. Heywood +9

Precessing relativistic jets launched by compact objects are rarely directly measured, and present an invaluable opportunity to better understand many features of astrophysical jet…

Relativistic ejecta from stellar mass black holes: insights from simulations and synthetic radio images

Katie Savard, James H. Matthews, Rob Fender +1

We present numerical simulations of discrete relativistic ejecta from an X-ray binary (XRB) with initial conditions directly informed by observations. XRBs have been observed to la…

MeerKAT discovers a jet-driven bow shock near GRS 1915+105. How an invisible large-scale jet sculpts a microquasar's environment

S. E. Motta, P. Atri, James H. Matthews +5

Black holes, both supermassive and stellar-mass, impact the evolution of their surroundings on a large range of scales. While the role of supermassive black holes is well studied,…

Quantifying jet-interstellar medium interactions in Cyg X-1: Insights from dual-frequency bow shock detection with MeerKAT

P. Atri, S. E. Motta, Jakob van den Eijnden +6

Accretion and outflows are astrophysical phenomena observed across a wide range of objects, from white dwarfs to supermassive black holes. Developing a complete picture of these pr…
