Accreting stellar-mass black holes

Greg Marcel, Bailey Tetarenko, Adam Ingram +3

Accreting stellar-mass black holes exhibit dramatic variability across the electromagnetic spectrum, including spectral state transitions, outbursts, and jet production, making the…

Monitoring Observations of SMC X-1's Excursions (MOOSE) III: X-ray Spectroscopy of a Warped, Precessing Accretion Disc

Rawan Karam, Kristen C. Dage, Bailey E. Tetarenko +11

The MOOSE (Monitoring Observations of SMC X-1 Excursions) program uses the Neutron Star Interior Composition Explorer Mission (NICER) to monitor the high mass X-ray binary SMC X-1…

Chasing the break: Tracing the full evolution of a black hole X-ray binary jet with multi-wavelength spectral modeling

Constanza Echiburú-Trujillo, Alexandra J. Tetarenko, Daryl Haggard +35

Black hole X-ray binaries (BH XRBs) are ideal targets to study the connection between accretion inflow and jet outflow. Here we present quasi-simultaneous, multi-wavelength observa…

An empirical connection between line-emitting regions and X-rays heating the accretion disc in BH-LMXB MAXI J1820070

B. E. Tetarenko, A. W. Shaw, P. A. Charles

The recurring transient outbursts in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) provide ideal laboratories to study the accretion process. Unlike their supermassive relatives, LMXBs are far t…

On the recurrence times of neutron star X-ray binary transients and the nature of the Galactic Centre quiescent X-ray binaries

Thomas J. Maccarone, Nathalie Degenaar, Bailey E. Tetarenko +3

The presence of some X-ray sources in the Galactic Centre region which show variability, but do not show outbursts in over a decade of monitoring has been used to argue for the pre…

The Novel Obscured State of Stellar-mass Black Hole GRS 1915+105

Mayura Balakrishnan, J. M. Miller, M. T. Reynolds +3

GRS 1915105 is a stellar-mass black hole that is well known for exhibiting at least 12 distinct classes of X-ray variability and correlated multi-wavelength behavior. Despite su…

Disk-jet coupling changes as a possible indicator for outbursts from GX 339-4 remaining within the X-ray hard state

S. E. M. de Haas, T. D. Russell, N. Degenaar +8

We present quasi-simultaneous radio, (sub-)millimetre, and X-ray observations of the Galactic black hole X-ray binary GX 339-4, taken during its 2017--2018 outburst, where the sour…

Using Optical Spectroscopy to Map the Geometry and Structure of the Irradiated Accretion Discs in Low-mass X-ray Binaries: The Pilot-Study of MAXI J0637430

B. E. Tetarenko, A. W. Shaw, E. R. Manrow +4

The recurring transient outbursts in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) provide us with strong test-beds for constraining the poorly understood accretion process. While impossible to…

Thermally-Driven Disc Winds as a Mechanism for X-ray Irradiation Heating in Black Hole X-ray Binaries: The Case Study of GX339-4

B. E. Tetarenko, G. Dubus, G. Marcel +2

X-ray irradiation heating of accretion discs in black hole X-ray binaries (BHXBs) plays a key role in regulating their outburst cycles. However, despite decades of theoretical and…

The impact of thermal winds on the outburst lightcurves of black hole X-ray binaries

G. Dubus, C. Done, B. E. Tetarenko +1

The observed signatures of winds from X-ray binaries are broadly consistent with thermal winds, driven by X-ray irradiation of the outer accretion disc. Thermal winds produce mass…

The black hole X-ray transient Swift J1357.2-0933 as seen with Swift and NuSTAR during its 2017 outburst

Aru Beri, B. E. Tetarenko, A. Bahramian +8

We report on observations of black hole Swift J1357.2-0933, a member of the modest population of very faint X-ray transients. This source has previously shown intense dips in the o…

Radio Frequency Timing Analysis of the Compact Jet in the Black Hole X-ray Binary Cygnus X-1

A. J. Tetarenko, P. Casella, J. C. A. Miller-Jones +5

We present simultaneous multi-band radio and X-ray observations of the black hole X-ray binary Cygnus X-1, taken with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array and the Nuclear Spectrosco…

The Curious Case of Swift J1753.5-0127: A Black Hole Low-mass X-ray Binary Analogue to Z Cam Type Dwarf Novae

A. W. Shaw, B. E. Tetarenko, G. Dubus +5

Swift J1753.5-0127 (J1753) is a candidate black hole low-mass X-ray binary (BH-LMXB) that was discovered in outburst in May 2005. It remained in outburst for years, exhibi…
