A scenario for a periodic filling and emptying of the accretion disc of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 is proposed, by computing the mass transfer rate from the evolving low mass red giant donor (Greiner at al. 2001) and comparing it with the…
The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) has made feasible for the first time the search for high-frequency (~ 100 Hz) periodic features in black hole candidate (BHC) systems. Such a feature, with a 67 Hz frequency, recently has been…
We run three long-timescale general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of radiatively inefficient accretion flows onto non-rotating black holes. Our aim is to achieve steady-state behavior out to large radii and understand the…
We have compared simultaneous Ryle Telescope radio and Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer X-ray observations of the galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105, using the classification of the X-ray behaviour in terms of three states as previously…
We present the results from simultaneous Chandra HETGS and RXTE observations of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 in its quasi-stable "soft state" (or State A) performed on 2007 August 14, several days after the state transition from "hard…
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 performed a detailed time-resolved spectral study of GRS 1915+105 during its low-flux rebrightening phase using the broadband capabilities of AstroSat and NuSTAR in May-June 2019. The AstroSat light curves revealed erratic X-ray flares…
Since its discovery in 1992, GRS 1915+105 has been among the brightest sources in the X-ray sky. However, in early 2018, it dimmed significantly and has stayed in this faint state ever since. We report on AstroSat and NuSTAR observation of…
Black hole X-ray binaries in their hard and hard-intermediate states display hard and soft time lags between broadband noise variations (high-energy emission lagging low-energy and vice versa), which could be used to constrain the geometry…
The hyperluminous X-ray source (HLX-1, the peak X-ray luminosity $\sim 10^{42}\rm erg\ s^{-1}$) near the spiral galaxy ESO 243-49 is possibly the best candidate for intermediate mass black hole (IMBH), which underwent recurrent outbursts…
Compact object systems exhibit Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) as revealed by peaked features in their power density spectra. It has been known that stochastic variations in the accretion disc will propagate to the corona after a time…
Radio imaging of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) during various flaring, quiescent, or oscillatory states of the black hole binary, always resolves the nucleus as a compact jet of length about…
The geometry of the accretion flow around stellar-mass black holes can change on timescales of days to months. When a black hole emerges from quiescence (that is, it "turns on" after accreting material from its companion) it has a very hard…
We analyzed 139 chi-state observations of GRS 1915+105 with RXTE from 1997 to 2000 and found i) that the observations fall into two groups with different Comptonization behavior, ii) that the slope of the hard X-ray component correlates…
We examine stochastic variability in the dynamics of X-ray emission from the black hole system GRS 1915+105, a strongly variable microquasar commonly used for studying relativistic jets and the physics of black hole accretion. The analysis…
We present the spectral and timing study of the bright NS-LMXB GX 5-1 using \textit{\textit{AstroSat}/LAXPC} and \textit{SXT} observations conducted in the year 2018. During the observation, the source traces out the complete HB and NB of…
We present a comprehensive analysis of Low Frequency Quasi-periodic Oscillation (LFQPO) associated time-lags in the persistently variable black hole binary GRS 1915+105 using 441 ks of \textit{AstroSat} observations from March 2016 to March…
Most of the luminosity of accreting black hole is emitted in the X-ray band. This radiation is believed to emerge, through inverse Compton process, from a hot (Te ~ 10^8 -10^9 K) optically thin (Thomson optical depth ~ 1) plasma probably…
GRS 1915+105 is a transient black hole X-ray binary consistently emitting 10-100% of the Eddington luminosity in the X-ray band during the last three decades until mid-2018 when the source luminosity suddenly decreased by an order of…
Previous analysis of AstroSat observations of the black hole system MAXI J1535-571, have revealed the presence of a strong Quasi-Periodic Oscillation (QPO) whose frequency is correlated with the high energy spectral index. Here, we fit the…
