We present multiepoch VLBA observations of the compact jet of GRS 1915+105 conducted at 15.0 and 8.4 GHz during a {\it plateau} state of the source in 2003 March-April. These observations show that the compact jet is clearly asymmetric.…

We present 5-GHz MERLIN radio images of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 during two separate outbursts in 2001 March and 2001 July, following the evolution of the jet components as they move outwards from the core of the system. Proper motions…

There is currently a clear discrepancy in the proper motions measured on different angular scales in the approaching radio jets of the black hole X-ray binary GRS1915+105. Lower velocities were measured with the Very Large Array (VLA) prior…

We present evidence of a direct accretion disk-jet connection in the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 based on our analysis of RXTE/PCA data with a ``spike'' in X-ray light curves. We find that the radio emission increases as the hardness…

We combine a complete sample of 113 pointed observations taken with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer between 1996-1999, monitoring observations taken with the Ryle telescope and the Green Bank Interferometer, and selected observations with…

The jets of GRS 1915+105 carry a considerable energy away from the central source into the ISM. The similarity of the jets of this source and jets in radio galaxies or radio-loud quasars suggests that we should detect large-scale,…

We present the result of multi-wavelength observations of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 in a plateau state with a luminosity of ~7.5x10^{38) erg s-1 (~40% L_Edd), conducted simultaneously with the INTEGRAL and RXTE satellites, the ESO/NTT,…

We present GMRT observations of the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 at 1.28 GHz for 8 days from 2001 June 18 to July 1. We have seen several isolated radio flares of varying magnitudes (20 - 50 mJy) and durations (6 - 35 min) and we model…
