Bowen emission from Aquila X-1: evidence for multiple components and constraint on the accretion disc vertical structure
F. Jiménez-Ibarra, T. Muñoz-Darias, L. Wang +5
We present a detailed spectroscopic study of the optical counterpart of the neutron star X-ray transient Aquila X-1 during its 2011, 2013 and 2016 outbursts. We use 65 intermediate…
An elevation of 0.1 light-seconds for the optical jet base in an accreting Galactic black hole system
Poshak Gandhi, Matteo Bachetti, Vik S. Dhillon +25
Relativistic plasma jets are observed in many accreting black holes. According to theory, coiled magnetic fields close to the black hole accelerate and collimate the plasma, leadin…
MAGIC VHE Gamma-Ray Observations Of Binary Systems
Daniela Hadasch, Wlodek Bednarek, Oscar Blanch +13
There are several types of Galactic sources that can potentially accelerate charged particles up to GeV and TeV energies. We present here the results of our observations of the sou…
X-ray Binaries
Jorge Casares, Peter G. Jonker, Garik Israelian
This chapter discusses the implications of X-ray binaries on our knowledge of Type Ibc and Type II supernovae. X-ray binaries contain accreting neutron stars and stellar--mass blac…
The First Simultaneous X-Ray/Radio Detection of the First Be/BH System MWC 656
M. Ribó, P. Munar-Adrover, J. M. Paredes +6
MWC 656 is the first known Be/black hole (BH) binary system. Be/BH binaries are important in the context of binary system evolution and sources of detectable gravitational waves be…
