An Environmental Study of the Ultraluminous X-ray Source Population in Early-type Galaxies
Richard M. Plotkin, Elena Gallo, Brendan P. Miller +3
Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are some of the brightest phenomena found outside of a galaxy's nucleus, and their explanation typically invokes accretion of material onto a bla…
V4641 Sgr: a candidate precessing microblazar
Elena Gallo, Richard M. Plotkin, Peter G. Jonker
The X-ray spectrum of the Galactic X-ray binary V4641 Sgr in outburst has been found to exhibit a remarkably broad emission feature above 4 keV, with inferred equivalent widths up…
The X-ray properties of the black hole transient MAXI J1659-152 in quiescence
Jeroen Homan, Joel K. Fridriksson, Peter G. Jonker +5
We present new Chandra X-ray observations of the transient black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1659-152 in quiescence. These observations were made more than one year after the end of th…
A Distinctive Disk-Jet Coupling in the Lowest-Mass Seyfert, NGC 4395
Ashley L. King, Jon M. Miller, Mark T. Reynolds +3
Simultaneous observations of X-rays and radio luminosities have been well studied in accreting stellar-mass black holes. These observations are performed in order to understand how…
The X-ray Spectral Evolution of Galactic Black Hole X-ray Binaries Toward Quiescence
Richard M. Plotkin, Elena Gallo, Peter G. Jonker
Most transient black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) spend the bulk of their time in a quiescent state, where they accrete matter from their companion star at highly sub-Eddington lumi…
An evolving compact jet in the black hole X-ray binary MAXI J1836-194
D. M. Russell, T. D. Russell, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +27
We report striking changes in the broadband spectrum of the compact jet of the black hole transient MAXI J1836-194 over state transitions during its discovery outburst in 2011. A f…
