Relativistic jets from accreting black holes (BHs) radiate non-thermal emission which is highly variable in different time scales. Magnetic fields anchored to a rotating BH or accretion disc accelerate and collimate jets of the BH systems.…

We present the first detections of the black hole X-ray binary GRS 1915+105 at sub-millimetre wavelengths. We clearly detect the source at 350 GHz on two epochs, with significant variability over the 24 hr between epochs. Quasi-simultaneous…

We present X-ray observations of the Black-Hole Binary GRS 1915+105 made with the RXTE (Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer). We concentrated on timing analysis of the strong variability focusing on its aperiodic variability on short (<1s) time…

We report simultaneous millimetre and infrared observations of a sequence of very large amplitude quasi-periodic oscillations from the black hole X-ray binary GRS 1915+105. These oscillations are near the end of a sequence of over 700…

The two galactic `microquasars' with superluminal radio jets have been quite active during 1996, generatinga variety of studies involving both NASA and ground-based observatories. GRS~1915+105 has displayed dramatic accretion instability in…

Microquasars are galactic black hole binary systems with radio jets which can sometimes be spatially resolved to show superluminal motion. The first and best known of this class of objects is GRS 1915+105, the brightest accreting source in…

We present the results of the timing analysis of five Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observations of the Black Hole Candidate GRS 1915+105 between 1996 September and 1997 December. The aim was to investigate the possible presence of a type-B…

The Galactic black hole transient GRS1915+105 is famous for its markedly variable X-ray and radio behaviour, and for being the archetypal galactic source of relativistic jets. It entered an X-ray outburst in 1992 and has been active ever…

A new class of X-ray sources was clearly established with the discovery of highly relativistic radio jets from the galactic sources GRS 1915+105 and GRO J1655-40. Both of these objects have given us a broader view of black holes and the…

We present evidence that ~ 30 minute episodes of jet formation in the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 may sometimes entirely be a superposition of smaller, faster phenomena. We base this conclusion on simultaneous X-ray and infrared…

GRS 1915+105 is a black hole X-ray binary exhibiting quasi-periodic $\rho$-class ("heartbeat") oscillations with periods of $\sim$50-100 s, thought to arise from radiation-pressure-driven instabilities in the inner accretion disk at…

The properties of sub-second time variability of the X-ray emission of the black-hole binary GRS 1915+105 are very complex and strictly connected to its patterns of variability observed on long time scales. A key aspect for determining the…

We present the results from a multiwavelength campaign of GRS 1915+105 performed from 2000 April 16 to 25. This is one of the largest coordinated set of observations ever performed for this source, covering the wide energy band in radio…

The superluminal X-ray transient source GRS 1915+105 was observed during July 20-29, 1996 with the Indian X-ray Astronomy Experiment (IXAE) on the Indian satellite IRS-P3 launched on March 21, 1996 from Shriharikota Range in India. During…

Microquasars are the compact objects generally including accreting black holes which produce relativistic jets. The physical mechanisms of jet launching, collimation, and acceleration are poorly understood. Microquasars show strong…

We report simultaneous observations of the black hole candidate X-ray transient GRS 1915+105 in the infrared at K and in the radio at 2 cm. Oscillations of period 26 min were observed in both wavebands, having (dereddened) peak--peak…

(abridged) In this paper we extend the idea suggested previously by Petri (2005a,b) that the high frequency quasi-periodic oscillations observed in low-mass X-ray binaries may be explained as a resonant oscillation of the accretion disk…

GRS 1915+105 is a very well studied microquasar with a wide variety of temporal and spectral states. Multi-wavelength observations from radio to X-rays have uncovered clear relations between the variability in different bands. GRS 1915+105…

We present the first detailed phase-resolved spectral analysis of a joint Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer and Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observation of the rho variability class in the microquasar GRS 1915+105. The…

We have analyzed the X-ray spectra of the microquasar GRS 1915+105, as observed with the PCA on the Rossi XTE, during periods of stable weak emission, outbursts and rapid flaring. We find that the complicated X-ray intensity curve of this…
