We last observed MAXI J1820+070 with both ALMA and the SMA on April 12.ALMA observations were taken on 2018 April 12 between 08:12-10:36 UTC and on 2018 July 6between 01:31-06:18 UTC (MJD~58305.063-58305.262), in the 335.5-339.4 GHz and 347.5-351.5 GHz frequency bands. On April 12, the ALMA flux density at 343 GHz was very bright,~120 mJy. Highly preliminary quality assurance checks on the July 6 observations detectedMAXI J1820+070 with peak flux densities of 7.2 mJy (near 03 UT) and 4.9 (near 05 UT) mJy ata representative frequency of 343.5 GHz. We estimate that these preliminary measurements haveabsolute fluxes only good to ~25%, but that the drop in the flux density over two hours is likelyreal.SMA observations occurred on 2018 April 12 between 11:00-20:00 UT and on 2018 July 6between 09:05 - 11:40 UTC (MJD=58305.378-58305.486). During our observations, the twoSMA receivers were tuned to local oscillator frequencies of 223/231 GHz (April 12) and 223/275GHz (July 6). On April 12, the SMA flux density was ~100 mJy at 227 GHz (where the flux washighly variable during the observation). Stacking the two frequency bands together in the imageplane on July 6, we detect a 3 sigma source coincident with the position measured from ourprevious mm/sub-mm observations (ATel #11440). Fitting a point source in the image plane wemeasure a preliminary flux density of 2.6 +/-0.8 mJy at 249 GHz.We see clear evidence for reduced jet flux density values at mm/sub-mm frequencies betweenApril 12 and July 6 observations. Over this same time, Swift/BAT only measured a moderatedrop in hard X-rays (15-50 keV; 0.66+/-0.03 counts/cm^2/s on April 12 dropping to 0.21 +/-0.02counts/cm^2/s on July 5/6 near 23:40 - 07:45 UTC). All measurements of the jets flux density onJuly 6 are significantly fainter than that predicted by the standard radio/X-ray correlation (f_r ∝Related12534 MAXI J1820+070 is close toquiescence12157 MAXI 1820+070 hascompleted the decline fromthe recent optical re-brightening following thesoft to hard transition12128 Optical brightening of MAXIJ1820+070 over the soft tohard transition observedwith LCO and the Al SadeemObservatory12068 MAXI J1820+070 continuingits rapid evolution towardthe hard state12064 Swift observes MAXIJ1820+070 in transition fromthe soft to the hard-intermediate state12061 AMI radio detection of theblack hole candidate MAXIJ1820+070 during the soft tohard transition.12057 MAXI/GSC detection of arapid increase in the hard X-ray flux of MAXI J1820+07011960 The 55 Hz signal we detectedin MAXI J 1820+070 is not aQPO11951 Detection of a 55 Hz high-frequency QPO in MAXIJ1820+070 with NICER11936 Optical timing observationsof MAXI J1820+070 withIFI+IQUEYE and AQUEYE+soon after state transition11899 Short-lived episodes ofemission line splitting in thecandidate black hole X-raybinary MAXI 1820+07011887 LOFAR observations ofMAXI J1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey) during its recent statetransition11855 Polarimetric monitoring ofthe MAXI J1820+070 inoptical and near-infraredwavelengths11833 Declining near-infrared fluxfrom the black-holecandidate MAXI J1820+070(ASASSN-18ey) in transition11831 (Sub)-millimetreObservations of MAXIJ1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey)Suggest Jet Quenching onJuly 6ATel #11831: (Sub)-millimetre Observations of MAXI J1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey) Suggest Jet Quenching on July 6http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=11831[8-3-2019 09:06:52]f_x^0.7) based on their April 12 values. This strongly suggests that the radio jet was quenchingon July 6 as the hard intermediate - soft intermediate state transition occurred (ATel #11823).Radio through mm/sub-mm detections of black hole X-ray binaries typically arise from a compactsynchrotron-emitting jet, characterized by a flat to slightly inverted, optically thick spectrum, thatcan break to a steep, optically thin spectrum at higher frequencies. The spectral break of the jethas been seen to move to lower frequencies as the compact jet is quenched during transitions tosofter accretion states (e.g., Russell et al. 2014, MNRAS, 439, 1390). The ALMA and SMA fluxdensities on July 6 are increasingly more discrepant from those expected from the hard X-rayflux. Moreover, the measurement of the early ALMA flux density is nearly simultaneous with therecently reported ~6 mJy AMI detection towards the end of its monitoring on July 5/6 (ATel#11827). Our best explanations for these data requires that both the jet-power drop (relative tothat expected from the accretion rate) and that either: (a) the radio--sub-mm spectrum hastransformed from being inverted on April 12 to nearly flat on July 6 or (b) the spectral breakmoved from above 350 GHz on April 12 to below 350 GHz (possibly to frequencies below theSMA band) on July 6.We thank the SMA and ALMA staff for rapidly scheduling our observations.11827 AMI-LA 15.5 GHzobservations of radio flaringfrom the black holecandidate MAXI J1820+070in transition11824 Other low-frequency opticalQPO-like features in MAXIJ1820+070 detected withIFI+IQUEYE@Galileo11823 Continuing NICERobservations of the statetransition in ASASSN-18ey/MAXI J1820+07011820 A rapid state transition inMAXI J1820+07011723 Low-frequency optical QPOin MAXI J1820+070 detectedwith IFI+IQUEYE@Galileo11661 KEGS Discovery of 9Supernova Candidates in theK2 Campaign 17 field withPan-STARRS PS111609 Simultaneous LOFAR andAMI-LA observations ofMAXI J1820+07011596 MAXI J1820+070 has opticalperiod of 3.4 hours11591 Further detection of theoptical low frequency QPO inthe black hole transientMAXI J1820+07011578 Exponential increase in X-ray QPO frequency with timein MAXI J1820+07011576 NICER observations of MAXIJ1820+070: Continuingevolution of X-ray variabilityproperties11574 Optical/X-ray FluxDecoupling in MAXIJ1820+07011540 VLITE meter-wavelengthdetection of MAXI J1820+070at 339 MHz11539 The 30-day monitoring ofMAXI J1820+070 at 4.7 GHz11533 A bright mid-infrared excessin MAXI J1820+07011510 Detection of optical and X-ray QPOs at similarfrequencies in MAXIJ1820+07011490 INTEGRAL observations ofMAXI J1820+070: public dataproducts11488 Low-frequency QPOs inMAXI J1820+070 as seen byINTEGRAL/SPI11482 Palomar 60-inch SEDMclassification of opticaltransients11481 MAXI J1820+070: VLT andGTC spectroscopic follow-upshows a significant spectralevolution from the earlystages of the outburst11480 ePESSTO spectroscopicclassification of opticaltransients11478 INTEGRAL observations ofMAXI J1820+07011462 Near Infrared JHKsobservations of the transientMAXI J1820+070 / ASASSN-18ey: Erratum on 2MASScounterpart designation11458 Near Infrared JHKsobservations of the transientMAXI J1820+070 / ASASSN-18ey11451 Fast infrared photometry ofthe black-hole candidateMAXI J1820+070ATel #11831: (Sub)-millimetre Observations of MAXI J1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey) Suggest Jet Quenching on July 6http://www.astronomerstelegram.org/?read=11831[8-3-2019 09:06:52]11445 First measurements of linearpolarization of MAXIJ1820+07011440 NOEMA Sub-millimetreDetection of MAXI J1820+07011439 A flat radio spectrum ofMAXI J1820+07011437 Red sub-second opticalflaring in MAXI J1820+070observed byULTRACAM/NTT11432 Correlated Optical/X-rayTiming Variations in MAXIJ1820+070 found by SwiftUVOT and XRT11427 The hard X-ray spectrum ofMAXI J1820+070 observedby Swift/BAT11426 Detection of 10-msec scaleoptical flares in the black-hole binary candidate MAXIJ1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey)11425 Optical Spectra of MAXIJ1820+070 with Keck11424 SOAR/Goodman opticalspectroscopy of MAXIJ1820+07011423 NICER observations of MAXIJ1820+070 suggest a rapidly-brightening black hole X-raybinary in the hard state11421 Fast optical flaring in thesuspected black-hole binaryMAXI J1820+070 (ASASSN-18ey)11420 AMI radio observations ofthe black hole candidateMAXI J1820+07011418 Optical observations of MAXIJ1820+070 suggest it is ablack hole X-ray binary11406 MAXI J1820+070: Errata andupdated XRT Position11404 MAXI J1820+070: Swift/UVOTcounterpart correction11403 Swift detection of MAXIJ1820+07011400 Optical follow-up of MAXIJ1820+070 and possibleidentity with ASASSN-18ey11399 MAXI/GSC detection of aprobable new X-ray transientMAXI J1820+07010459 Ongoing radio monitoring ofCyg X-1 with the RATAN-600radio telescope[ Telegram Index ]R.
