An SKA precursor view of X-ray binary jets
In this PhD thesis, we use the Square Kilometre Array precursor telescopes, including the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder, and MeerKAT, to study the jets of black hole X-ray binaries (BH-XRBs), through both broadband spectra and neutral hydrogen abso...

| description | In this PhD thesis, we use the Square Kilometre Array precursor telescopes, including the Murchison Widefield Array (MWA), the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder, and MeerKAT, to study the jets of black hole X-ray binaries (BH-XRBs), through both broadband spectra and neutral hydrogen absorption measurements. We constrained the kinematic distance of two BH-XRBs. We made the first MWA detections of both transient and compact jets in BH-XRBs, from which we determined the jet physical parameters. |
