The 2002 outburst of the microquasar XTE J1550-564
A. P. Colombo, T. Belloni, J. Homan +2
We present results of spectral and timing analysis based on 11 RXTE PCA/HEXTE observations of the microquasar XTE J1550-564 during its last outburst in January 2002. The observed b…
GX 339-4: back to life
T. Belloni, E. Nespoli, J. Homan +4
We report preliminary results of a RossiXTE campaign on the 2002 outburst of the black-hole candidate GX 339-4. We show power density spectra of five observations during the early…

Tomaso Belloni
It is now ten years since the first microquasar GRS 1915+105 was discovered. More than six years of observations with RossiXTE have shown a level of variability never observed in a…

A. Martocchia, G. Matt, V. Karas +2
We report on the discovery of a relativistic iron Kαfluorescent emission line in the BeppoSAX spectrum of the microquasar GRS 1915+105, taken on April 19, 1998, when the line was u…
