Spectral energy distribution, polarization, and synthetic radio maps of Cygnus X-1: a lepto-hadronic jet model

C. Pepe, G. S. Vila, G. E. Romero

In this work we combine SEDs, radio maps and polarization observations to understand the emission mechanisms in Cygnus X-1. Our radiative model indicates that the MeV emission orig…

Non-thermal radiation from Cygnus X-1 corona

F. L. Vieyro, G. E. Romero, G. S. Vila

Cygnus X-1 was the first X-ray source widely accepted to be a black hole candidate and remains among the most studied astronomical objects in its class. The detection of non-therma…

Gamma-ray variability from wind clumping in HMXBs with jets

S. P. Owocki, G. E. Romero, R. H. D. Townsend +1

In the subclass of high-mass X-ray binaries known as "microquasars", relativistic hadrons in the jets launched by the compact object can interact with cold protons from the star's…

A model for the electromagnetic spectrum of the inner jets of Cen A

M. Orellana, G. E. Romero

Centaurus A, the closest active galaxy, has been detected from radio to high-energy gamma-rays. The synchrotron radiation by extremely high energy protons may be a suitable mechani…

LS I+61 303: microquasar or not microquasar?

G. E. Romero, M. Orellana, A. T. Okazaki +1

LS I +61 303 is a puzzling object detected from radio up to high-energy gamma-rays. Variability has recently been observed in its high-energy emission. The object is a binary syste…

Microquasars and gamma-ray sources

Gustavo E. Romero

Microquasars are X-ray binary systems with non-thermal radio emission originated in jet-like features. They are attractive sites for gamma-ray production, since relativistic partic…
