We propose a scenario for a periodic filling and emptying of the accretion disc of GRS 1915+105, by computing the mass transfer rate from the donor and comparing it with the observed accretion rate. The binary parameters found by Greiner et…
We present a new dynamical study of the black hole X-ray transient GRS1915+105 making use of near-infrared spectroscopy obtained with X-shooter at the VLT. We detect a large number of donor star absorption features across a wide range of…
The donor in the microquasar GRS 1915+105 is a low-mass giant. Such a star consists of a degenerate helium core and a hydrogen-rich envelope. Both components are separated by a hydrogen burning shell. The structure of such an object is…
I summarize recent near-infrared spectroscopy of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 with the ESO/VLT which allowed to (i) identify the donor and (ii) measure the orbital period and radial velocity amplitude. Assuming that the jet ejections occur…
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…
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…
The binary parameters of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 have been determined by the detection of Doppler-shifted 12CO and 13CO lines in its K-band spectrum (Greiner et al., 2001, Nature, 414, 522). Here, we present further analysis of the…
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 have analyzed in detail a set of Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) observations of the galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105 corresponding to times when quasi-periodic oscillations in the infrared have been reported. From time-resolved…
Measurement of the energy emitted from accreting astrophysical systems provides an observational constraint on the plasma processes that may be operating within the disk. Here we examine the continual time variation over the past six years…
We investigate different accretion disk models and viscosity prescriptions in order to provide a basic explanation for the exotic temporal behavior in GRS 1915+105. Based on the fact that the overall cycle times are very much longer than…
We present the results of a detailed analysis of RXTE observations of class $\omega$ which show an unusual state transition between high-soft and low-soft states in the microquasar GRS 1915+105. Out of about 600 pointed RXTE observations,…
We consider constraints on the distance, inclination and component masses in the X-ray binary GX 339--4 resulting from published works, and then construct detailed evolutionary models for the donor. From both considerations, and assuming…
We present a scenario for the variability of the microquasar GRS 1915+105. This starts from previous works, leading to the tentative identification of the Accretion-Ejection Instability as the source of the low-frequency Quasi-Periodic…
The extraordinarily long outburst of GRS 1915+105 makes it one of the most remarkable low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). It has been in a state of constant outburst since its discovery in 1992, an eruption which has persisted ~100 times…
To understand the bursting behavior of the microquasar GRS 1915+105, we calculate time evolution of a luminous, optically thick accretion disk around a stellar mass black hole undergoing limit-cycle oscillations between the high- and low-…
We consider donor evolution and mass transfer in the microquasar V404 Cyg/GS 2023+338. Based on X-ray observations of its two outbursts, its average mass accretion rate is substantially lower than our model mass-loss rate from its low-mass…
Powerful relativistic jets are one of the ubiquitous features of accreting black holes in all scales. GRS 1915+105 is a well-known fast-spinning black-hole X-ray binary with a relativistic jet, termed as a ``microquasar'', as indicated by…
Using the Insight-HXMT observations of GRS 1915+105 when it exhibits low frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs), we measure the evolution of the QPO frequency along with disk inner radius and mass accretion rate. We find a tight…
We present an analysis of constraints on the companion mass for the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105. Using the known inclination angle and stability of the jet axis, we can rule out massive ($M_s \ga 3 M_{\sun}$) companions with orbital…
