AND ASTROPHYSICS The radio surroundings of the microquasar GRO J1655−40
We report the results of a study of the radio surroundings of the superluminal microquasar GRO J1655−40. We have searched for extended continuum structures that might be indicative of the presence of a supernova remnant (SNR) associated with the formation of the compact object in the binary system. We also carried out HI-line observations of the region looking for a local minimum created by an ...
متن کاملDiscovery of a 450 Hz QPO from the Microquasar GRO J1655-40 with RXTE
We report the discovery with the proportional counter array (PCA) onboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) of a 450 Hz quasiperiodic oscillation (QPO) in the hard X-ray flux from the galactic microquasar GRO J1655-40. This is the highest frequency QPO modulation seen to date from a black hole. The QPO is detected only in the hard X-ray band above ∼ 13 keV. It is both strong and narrow, wi...
متن کاملComptel Observations of Gro J1655-40
GRO J1655-40 is a transient black-hole candidate that has been shown to eject matter at apparently superluminal velocities. OSSE spectra measured during X-ray outbursts are consistent with a single power law up to 600 keV, with no evidence for a high-energy cutoo. Flaring behaviour of GRO J1655-40 has also been claimed to be detected up to 10 MeV during observations with the balloon-borne HIREG...
متن کاملA Super-Eddington Wind Model for GRO J1655-40
A model for GROJ1655-40 is described in which the hard X/~-ray behavior, and long delay between the X/~ and radio outbursts, are explained by processes which occur when the accretion rate approaches and exceeds the Eddington limit. The principal feature of the model is a dense, optically thick, super-Eddington wind ejected from the center of the accretion disk. The wind is responsible for deter...
متن کاملAlignment Timescale of the Microquasar GRO J 1655 - 40
The microquasar GRO J1655–40 has a black hole with spin angular momentum apparently misaligned to the orbital plane of its companion star. We analytically model the system with a steady state disc warped by Lense-Thirring precession and find the timescale for the alignment of the black hole with the binary orbit. We make detailed stellar evolution models so as to estimate the accretion rate and...
