A Working Catalogue of Herbig Haro Objects

We present a catalogue of 184 Herbig Haro objects from a literature search complete to 1987.5. It is intended to update the 1974 catalogue of Herbig. The catalogue contains accurate co-ordinates, proper motions, radial velocities and spectral information for these objects. A cross-reference to the two best finding charts is included. A grouping of Herbig Haro objects into is also listed

MERLIN observations of GRS 1915+105 : a progress report

We present a progress report on MERLIN radio imaging of a radio outburst from GRS 1915+105. The major ejection occurred at the end of an approximately 20-day `plateau' state, characterised by low/hard X-ray fluxes and a relatively strong flat-spectrum radio component. Apparent superluminal motions have been mapped with unprecedented resolution, and imply higher velocities in the jet than previously derived.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures. To be published in New Astronomy Reviews, as part of proceedings of 2nd workshop on Galactic sources with relativistic jet

Magnetic field estimation in Cyg X-3’s jet

Multi-wavelength photometric observations of Cygnus X-3 were carried out at 18 cm through to 450 µm, complemented by X-ray (2-10 keV) observations. The system was mildly active with cm fluxes at 150 – 250 mJy. We find the spectrum to be flat with a spectral index of zero. Using a modified Wolf-Rayet wind model, and assuming emission is generated in synchrotron emitting jets from the source, we find an upper-limit to the magnetic field of 20 G at a distance 5×10 12 cm is required. 1
