SS 433: Radio/X-ray anti-correlation and fast-time variability

Abstract

We briefly review the Galactic microquasar SS 433/W50 and present a new RXTE spectral and timing study. We show that the X-ray flux decreases during radio flares, a behavior seen in other microquasars. We also find short time-scale variability unveiling emission regions from within the binary system.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, mq.sty included.
