Towards a unified view of inhomogeneous stellar winds in isolated supergiant stars and supergiant high mass X-ray binaries

S Martínez-Núñez, P Kretschmar, E Bozzo… - Space Science …, 2017 - Springer
Massive stars, at least∼ 10 \sim10 times more massive than the Sun, have two key
properties that make them the main drivers of evolution of star clusters, galaxies, and the …

The INTEGRAL view on black hole X-ray binaries

SE Motta, J Rodriguez, E Jourdain, M Del Santo… - New Astronomy …, 2021 - Elsevier
INTEGRAL is an ESA mission in fundamental astrophysics that was launched in October

A new lepto-hadronic model applied to the first simultaneous multiwavelength data set for Cygnus X–1

D Kantzas, S Markoff, T Beuchert… - Monthly Notices of …, 2021 - academic.oup.com
Cygnus X–1 is the first Galactic source confirmed to host an accreting black hole. It has been
detected across the entire electromagnetic spectrum from radio to GeV gamma-rays. The …

Atmospheric NLTE models for the spectroscopic analysis of blue stars with winds-IV. Porosity in physical and velocity space

JO Sundqvist, J Puls - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2018 - aanda.org

derivation of synthetic observables across the electromagnetic spectrum. Aims. We …

Analysis of NuSTAR and Suzaku observations of Cyg X-1 in the hard state: evidence for a truncated disc geometry

R Basak, AA Zdziarski, M Parker… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2017 - academic.oup.com
The geometry of the accretion flow in black hole X-ray binaries in the hard state, in particular
the position of the disc inner edge, has been a subject of intense debate in recent years. We …

Long term variability of Cygnus X-1-VIII. A spectral-timing look at low energies with NICER
