Context. The microquasar 1E 1740.7-2942 is a source located in the direction of the Galactic Center. It has been detected at X-rays, soft gamma-rays, and in the radio band, showing an extended radio component in the form of a double-sided…
We present the discovery of peculiar extended X-ray emission around 1E1740.7-2942, a black hole candidate that is known to produce prominent, persistent radio jets. The data was obtained with the High-Energy Transmission Grating…
Aims. The prototypical microquasar GRS 1758-258 exhibits large-scale morphological changes in radio maps over time which have been attributed to the rise of instabilities. Here, we investigate whether these effects could be attributed to…
We study the jet and counterjet of the powerful classical double FRII radio galaxy Cygnus A as seen in the 5, 8 and 15-GHz radio bands using the highest spatial resolution and signal-to-noise archival data available. We demonstrate that the…
Context. Astrophysical jets are ubiquitous in the Universe on all scales, but their large-scale dynamics and evolution in time are hard to observe since they usually develop at a very slow pace. Aims. We aim to obtain the first…
The nearby radio galaxy M87 offers a unique opportunity to explore the connections between the central supermassive black hole and relativistic jets. Previous studies of the inner region of M87 revealed a wide opening angle for the jet…
We present the results of millimetre (33 and 35 GHz) and centimetre (2.1, 5.5 and 9.0 GHz) wavelength observations of the neutron star X-ray binary Circinus X-1, using the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We have used advanced calibration…
We present an in-depth study of the large-scale, western jet of the microquasar XTE J1550-564, based on X-ray and radio observations performed in 2002-2003. The jet is spatially resolved in both observing windows. The X-ray jet is expanding…
Precessing relativistic jets launched by compact objects are rarely directly measured, and present an invaluable opportunity to better understand many features of astrophysical jets. In this Letter we present MeerKAT radio observations of…
LSI+61303 is one of the few GeV- and TeV-emitting X-ray binaries with a prominent, well-studied modulated radio and gamma-ray emission. Changes in its radio morphology suggested in the past the hypothesis of a precessing microquasar. In…
Five years of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observations of the Galactic black-hole candidates 1E 1740.7-2942 and GRS 1758-258 show a periodic modulation with amplitude 3-4% in each source at 12.73 +/- 0.05 dy and 18.45 +/- 0.10 dy,…
Our understanding of large-scale radio jets in merger systems has been drastically improved in the era of VLA, VLBA/EVN, uGMRT, and MeerKAT. Twin Radio Galaxies (TRGs) are the rare interacting galaxy pairs where both supermassive black…
The extended X-ray emission observed at arcsec scales along the propagation trajectory of the precessing relativistic jets of the Galactic microquasar SS 433 features a broad emission line, with the position of the centroid being…
We report on the formation and evolution of two large-scale, synchrotron-emitting jets from the black hole candidate H 1743-322 following its reactivation in 2003. In November 2003 after the end of its 2003 outburst, we noticed, in…
We present the deepest yet radio image of the Galactic jet source, SS433, which reveals over two full precession cycles (> 2 x 163 days) of the jet axis. Systematic and identifiable deviations from the traditional kinematical model for the…
GRO J1655--40 is a galactic microquasar, i.e. a short-period binary with relativistic radio-jets and where the companion is a black-hole. A little after its discovery in 1994 by $BATSE$, a distance of 3.2$\pm$0.2 kpc has been estimated, and…
We report the results of a phase-referencing study aimed at uncovering precession of the VLBI jet of BL Lac. The observations were conducted at 8, 15, 22, and 43 GHz and consist of seven epochs spanning about two years. We investigated the…
In addition to the large surveys and catalogs of massive young stellar objects and outflows, dedicated studies of particular sources, in which high-angular observations (mainly at near-IR and mm) are analyzed in depth, are needed to shed…
We show that changes in the orientation of the inner accretion disk of Cygnus X-1 affect the shape of the broad Fe K$\alpha$ emission line emitted from this object, in such a way that eV-level spectral resolution observations (such as those…
Jet precession is sometimes invoked to explain asymmetries in radio galaxy (RG) jets and "X/S/Z-shape" radio galaxies, caused by the presence of a binary black hole companion to the source active galactic nucleus (AGN) or by accretion…
