We interpret observed features of the black hole candidate GRS1915+105 in the light of the advective flow paradigm. The light curve of this black hole is seen to be of four classes, Soft, Hard, Semi-Soft and Intermediate. Each class can…

The galactic superluminal motion source GRS 1915+105 has been extensively observed with the RXTE satellite over the last two years. More than 250 RXTE pointings have been performed until mid-May 1998 with more than 1.5 Msec exposure time on…

The microquasar GRS1915+105 was observed by BeppoSAX in October 2000 for about ten days while the source was in \rho-mode, which is characterized by a quasi-regular type I bursting activity. This paper presents a systematic analysis of the…

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 results from the analysis of X-ray energy spectra and quasi- periodic oscillations (QPOs) from a set of observations which samples a broad range of time variability in GRS 1915+105. We first demonstrate that the frequency and…

We present data on the monitoring of the Galactic X-ray transient GRS 1915+105 at 15 GHz with the Ryle Telescope. We have found quasi-periodic oscillations with periods in the range 20-40 min which are tentatively associated with the…

The RXTE observations of GRS 1915+105 have given a new impulse to the study of spectral and timing properties of the X-ray emission of black hole candidates. At variance with any other known source, GRS 1915+105 shows dramatic changes on…

BeppoSAX observed GRS 1915+105 on October 2000 with a long pointing lasting about ten days. During this observation, the source was mainly in the rho class characterized by bursts with a recurrence time of between 40 and 100 s. We identify…

The microquasar GRS 1915+105 is known to exhibit a very variable X-ray emission on different time scales and patterns. We propose a system of two ordinary differential equations, adapted from the Hindmarsh-Rose model, with two dynamical…

The light curves of GRS 1915+105 observed with RXTE on October 15, 1996 reveal a wide range of transient activity including regular bursts with a recurrence time of about 1 minute, irregular bursts, and dips. In contrast to bursts from…

We present new insights about accretion and ejection physics based on joint RXTE/Chandra HETGS studies of rapid X-ray variability in GRS 1915+105. For the first time, with fast phase-resolved spectroscopy of the rho state, we are able to…

By analyzing the time series of RXTE/PCA data, the nonlinear variabilities of compact sources have been repeatedly established. Depending on the variation in temporal classes, compact sources exhibit different nonlinear features. Sometimes…

The galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 has been in a continuous state of outburst since 1992, over 20 times longer than any other black hole X-ray transient. Assuming that the outburst is powered via accretion of an irradiated gaseous disc,…

We compare Very Large Array observations of GRS 1915+105 made in 1994 and 2023, with nearly three decades of difference. The source has experienced intriguing major changes. The position angle of the bipolar ejecta in the plane of the sky…

Galactic black hole candidates GRS 1915+105 and IGR J17091-3624 have many similarities in their light curves and spectral properties. However, very little is known about the orbital elements of their companions. In case the orbits are…

We report detailed, long term near-infrared (NIR) light curves of GRS 1915+105 in 2007-2008, covering its long "soft state" for the first time. From our NIR monitoring and the X-ray data of the All Sky Monitor (ASM) onboard Rossi X-ray…

In this work, we present a $\sim$90 ks continuous monitoring of the Galactic micro-quasar GRS 1915+105 with AstroSat when the source undergoes a major transition from a non-variable, $\chi$ class (similar to radio-quiet $\chi$ class) to a…
