We present observations of SS 433 using the Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer. Many emission lines of highly ionized elements are detected with the relativistic blue and red Doppler shifts. The lines are measurably…
We fit Chandra HETGS data obtained for the unusual X-ray binary SS 433. While line strengths and continuum levels hardly change, the jet Doppler shifts show aperiodic variations that probably result from shocks in interactions with the…
The X-ray spectrum of the Galactic microquasar SS 433 contains a rich set of emission lines of highly ionized atoms of heavy elements whose significant Doppler shift leaves no doubt that they are produced in collimated relativistic jets of…
We report on the jet structure in SS 433 based on X-ray high resolution spectroscopy with the XRISM/Resolve. The source was observed over 5 days covering both inside and outside an eclipse of the compact object by the companion star.…
High-resolution X-ray spectra of SS 433 obtained after a binary egress with the Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) were studied. Many Doppler-shifted X-ray emission lines from highly ionized elements were…
We report results of the 2006 April multi-wavelengths campaign of SS 433, focusing on X-ray data observed with Suzaku at two orbital phases (in- and out-of- eclipse) and simultaneous optical spectroscopic observations. By analyzing the Fe25…
We present five epochs of simultaneous radio (VLA) and X-ray (Chandra) observations of SS 433, to study the relation between the radio and X-ray emission in the arcsecond-scale jets of the source. We detected X-ray emission from the…
The mechanisms for the formation of X-ray lines in the spectrum of SS 433 are investigated by taking into account the radiative transfer inside the jets. The results of Monte Carlo numerical simulations are presented. The effect of a…
We present results from coordinated multiwavelength observations of the SS 433, obtained with XRISM, optical telescopes, and near-infrared camera during 2024 April and 2025 March. The XRISM exposures amounted to ~200 ks in 2024 and ~100 ks…
Some stationary lines in the emission spectra of SS 433 are eclipsed, but most are not. Lines attributed to a circumbinary disk are not eclipsed, but double in relative intensity during primary eclipse. A C II doublet is eclipsed and…
We test the physical model of the relativistic jets in the galactic X-ray binary SS 433 proposed in our previous paper using additional observations from the Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer. These observations sample…
The extended X-ray emission observed at arcsec scales along the propagation trajectory of the precessing relativistic jets of the Galactic microquasar SS 433 features a broad emission line, with the position of the centroid being…
Despite decades of observations across all wavebands and dedicated theoretical modelling, the SS 433 system still poses many questions, especially in the high-energy range. SS 433 is a high-mass X-ray binary at a distance of $\sim 5.5$ kpc,…
We present Chandra X-ray (0.2-8 keV) and Very Large Array radio (15 and 5 GHz) images of the $\gamma$-ray bright, superluminal quasar 0827+243. The X-ray jet bends sharply--by ~90 deg., presumably amplified by projection effects--5'' from…
The mildly relativistic jets of SS\,433 are believed to inflate the surrounding supernova remnant W\,50 depositing in its expansion possibly more than 99% of their kinetic energy (\cite[1998]{Dub98}). Where and how this transformation of…
We present the deepest yet radio image of the Galactic jet source, SS433, which reveals over two full precession cycles (> 2 x 163 days) of the jet axis. Systematic and identifiable deviations from the traditional kinematical model for the…
The observed X-ray luminosity of SS 433 is ~10^36 erg/s, it is known that all the radiation is formed in the famous SS 433 jets. The bolometric luminosity of SS 433 is ~10^40 erg/s, and originally the luminosity must be realized in X-rays.…
We present the X-ray images of all the available Chandra observations of the galactic jet source SS 433. We have studied the morphology of the X-ray images and inspected the evolution of the arcsec X-ray jets, recently found to be…
We present analysis of extensive monitoring of SS433 by the RXTE observatory collected over the period 1996-2005. The difference between energy spectra taken at different precessional and orbital phases shows the presence of a strong…
The Very Large Array has been used at five frequencies to study the structure and linear polarization of SS433 on scales as small as ~0.1" ~ 500 AU. Each jet consists of a sharp, curving ridge-line at the leading edge, plus significant…
