We report on new Chandra ACIS-I observations of the X-ray knots located in the western and eastern lobes of W50 associated with the parsec-scale jets of the Galactic microquasar SS 433. These knots are likely counterparts of the recently…
SS 433 is a binary system containing a supergiant star that is overflowing its Roche lobe with matter accreting onto a compact object (either a black hole or neutron star). Two jets of ionized matter with a bulk velocity of $\sim0.26c$…
The recently detected extended, very-high-energy gamma-ray emission from the microquasar V4641 Sgr reveals a puzzling 200-parsec-long jet-like structure significantly misaligned with its radio jet. We propose that this gamma-ray structure…
The X-ray binary SS 433, embedded in the W50 nebula (or supernova remnant W50), shows bipolar jets that are ejected with mildly relativistic velocities, and extend toward the east and west out to scales of tens of parsecs. Previous X-ray…
SS 433 is a microquasar whose relativistic jets precess every ~162 days, providing a laboratory for jet-interstellar medium interactions. We present a comprehensive analysis of 16 years of Fermi Large Area Telescope data (August…
SS433, located at the center of the supernova remnant W50, is a close proximity binary system consisting of a compact star and a normal star. Jets of material are directed outwards from the vicinity of the compact star symmetrically to the…
We present an analysis of 17 years of Fermi-LAT observations of the microquasar SS~433. We detect four GeV sources in the region: a newly identified source, PS J1910+0550, located outside W50; the previously reported source J1913+0512; and…
The discovery of bright gamma-ray emission coincident with supernova remnant (SNR) W51C is reported using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. W51C is a middle-aged remnant (~10^4 yr) with intense…
In this work, after testing the reliability of our algorithms through numerical simulations on the well-studied SS 433 Galactic microquasar, we focus on neutrino and $\gamma$-ray emissions from the extragalactic M33 X-7 system. This is a…
We present an analysis of the gamma-ray data obtained with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope in the direction of SNR W49B (G43.3-0.2). A bright unresolved gamma-ray source detected at a significance…
One of the most intriguing and challenging quests of current astrophysics is to understand the physical conditions and processes responsible for production of high-energy particles, and emission of \gamma-rays. A combination of…
The understanding of microquasars in our galaxy is one of the frontiers of high energy astrophysics. Their models are based on a capturing mass Black Hole, with a nearby spiraling binary companion star. The companion star mass feeds the…
Microquasars are compact binary systems hosting collimated relativistic jets. They have long been proposed as cosmic-ray accelerators, probed via the gamma-ray emission produced by relativistic particles. However, the observational evidence…
Microquasars are binary star systems with relativistic radio-emitting jets. They are potential sources of cosmic rays and laboratories for elucidating the physics of relativistic jets. Here we report the detection of variable gamma-ray…
The microquasar V404 Cygni (also known as GS 2023+338) was previously reported to have weak GeV gamma-ray emission in sub-day time periods during its 2015 outburst. In order to provide more detailed information at the high energy range for…
Four mosaics of deep, continuum-subtracted, CCD images have been obtained over the extensive galactic radio continuum shell, W 50, which surrounds the remarkable stellar system SS 433. Two of these mosaics in the Halpha+[N II] and [O III]…
Microquasar SS433 is composed by a supergiant star that feeds mass through a supercritical accretion disk to a $\sim 10 \ M_\odot$ black hole. The latter launches two oppositely directed jets that precess with a period of $162$ days. The…
The HEGRA CT-System was used to search for TeV gamma-rays from the microquasar and supernova remnant combination SS-433/W50 over the 1998 and 1999 observing seasons, resulting in about 20 hours of useful data. An analysis of various…
SS 433, located at the center of the W 50 radio nebula, is a binary system that ejects jets oriented east-west with precessional motion. X-ray lobes, containing compact "knots" labeled as head (e1), lenticular (e2), and ring (e3) in the…
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,…
