We present the first results of the timing analysis of our RXTE/INTEGRAL monitoring campaign on GRS 1915+105. Over the 6 already performed RXTE observations, we study the presence of Low Frequency QPO (LFQPO), and their energetic…
Our goal is to investigate the X-ray timing and spectral variability of the high-mass X-ray binary 1A 1118-615 during a type-II outburst. We performed a detailed color, spectral and timing analysis of a giant outburst from 1A 1118-615,…
We analyzed radio and X-ray observations of GRS 1915+105, between May 1995 and June 2006, focusing on the times characterized by radio flares and cycles of hard dips-soft spikes in the X-ray lightcurve. Assuming these flares to be discrete…
The low frequency quasi periodic oscillations (QPOs) are commonly observed during hard states of black hole binaries. Several studies have established various observational/empirical correlations between spectral parameters and QPO…
We present a study of the properties of strong 0.8-3.0 Hz quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) that occurred during 1997 RXTE observations of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 in the low-hard state. The high count rates allow us to track…

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…
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…
I report the discovery of hard X-ray phase lags associated with the famous 67 Hz quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in microquasar GRS 1915+105. The QPO is seen on multiple occasions. For this investigation, I have chosen one particular…
GRS 1915+105 has exhibited at least three modes of long-wavelength (infrared to radio) flares. Class A flares are the bright ($\sim 1$ Jy) radio events whose apparent superluminal motion in many ways defines the microquasars. Class B flares…
We present cross-correlation analyses of simultaneous X-ray and near-infrared (near-IR) observations of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 during relativistic jet-producing epochs (X-ray class $\alpha$ and $\beta$). While previous studies have…
We have investigated the complex multiwavelength evolution of GRO J1655-40 during the rise of its 2005 outburst. We detected two hard X-ray flares, the first one during the transition from the soft state to the ultra-soft state, and the…
In this work, we study the correlation between Quasi-periodic Oscillation (QPO) frequency and the spectral parameters during various X-ray states in the black hole binary GRS 1915+105 which matches well with the predicted relativistic…
