Radio emission of the Galactic X-rays binaries with relativistic jets

Variable non-thermal radio emission from Galactic X-ray binaries is a trace of relativistic jets, created near accretion disks. The spectral characteristics of a lot of radio flares in the X-ray binaries with jets (RJXB) is discussed in this report. We carried out several long daily monitoring programs with the RATAN-600 radio telescope of the sources: SS433, Cyg X-3, LSI+61o303, GRS 1915+10 and some others. We also reviewed some data from the GBI monitoring program at two frequencies and hard X-ray BATSE (20-100 keV) and soft X-ray RTXE (2-12 keV) ASM data. We confirmed that flaring radio emission of Cyg X-3 correlated with hard and anti-correlated with soft X-ray emission during the strong flare (>$Jy) in May 1997. During two orbital periods we investigated radio light curves of the remarkable X-binary LSI+61o303. Two flaring events near a phase 0.6 of the 26.5-day orbital period have been detected for first time at four frequencies simultaneously. Powerful flaring events of SS433 were detected at six frequencies in May 1996 and in May 1999. The decay of the flare is exactly fitted by an exponential law and the rate of the decay$\tau$ depends upon frequency as tau \propto \nu^{-0.4} in the first flare and does not depend upon frequency in the second flare, and is equal to \tau=6+-1 days at frequencies from 0.96 to 21.7 GHz in the last flare in May 1999. Many flaring RJXB show two, exponential and power, laws of flare decay. Moreover, these different laws could be present in one or several flares and commonly flare decays are faster at a higher frequency. The decay law seems to change because of geometric form of the conical hollow jets. The synchrotron and inverse Compton losses could explain general frequency dependences in flare evolution. In conclusion we summarized the general radio properties of RJXB.Comment: 10 pages, LaTeX, 14 Postscript figures, talk given at the Gamov Memorial International Conference (GMIC'99) "Early Universe: Cosmological Problems and Instrumental Technologies" in St.Petersburg, 23-27 August, 1999, to appear in Astron.

A Massive Jet Ejection Event from the Microquasar SS 433 Accompanying Rapid X-Ray Variability

Microquasars occasionally exhibit massive jet ejections which are distinct from the continuous or quasi-continuous weak jet ejections. Because those massive jet ejections are rare and short events, they have hardly been observed in X-ray so far. In this paper, the first X-ray observation of a massive jet ejection from the microquasar SS 433 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) is reported. SS 433 undergoing a massive ejection event shows a variety of new phenomena including a QPO-like feature near 0.1 Hz, rapid time variability, and shot-like activities. The shot-like activity may be caused by the formation of a small plasma bullet. A massive jet may be consist of thousands of those plasma bullets ejected from the binary system. The size, mass, internal energy, and kinetic energy of the bullets and the massive jet are estimated.Comment: 21 pages including 5 figures, submitted to Ap
