Observations of the disk/jet coupling of MAXI J1820+070 during its descent to quiescence

Observations of the disk/jet coupling of MAXI J1820+070 during its descent to quiescence

Black hole X-ray binaries in the quiescent state (Eddington ratios typically ≲10−5) display softer X-ray spectra (photon indices Γ ∼ 2) compared to higher-luminosity black hole X-ray binaries in the hard state (Γ ∼ 1.7). However, the cause of this softening and its implications for the underlying ac...
