Kemp (Univ. Columbia, NY | Abstract: | During 1996 the soft-X-ray transient and superluminal jet source GRO J1655-40 was observed in outburst with a multiwavelength campaign including HST, RXTE, CGRO and ground based facilities. Here we focus on a key question raised by the observations: where and how does the outburst optical flux originate? Any model must not only fit the optical spectra, but must account for the observation that X-ray fluxes continued to rise slowly while the optical flux declined, contrary to predictions of standard models for the outburst of SXTs and dwarf novae. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9708158 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
