We present an analysis of the high frequency timing properties of the April-May 2000 outburst of the black hole candidate and Galactic microquasar XTE J1550-564, measured with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. The rapid X-ray variability we measure is consistent with the source being in either the ``very high or ``intermediate black hole state. Strong (5-8% rms) quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) are found between 249-276 Hz; this represents the first detection of the same high frequency QPO in subsequent outbursts of a transient black hole candidate. We also present evidence for lower-frequency QPOs at approximately 188 Hz (3.5 sigma, single trial), also reported previously and likely present simultaneously with the higher-frequency QPOs. We discuss these findings within the context of the 1998 outburst of XTE J1550-564, and comment on implications for models of QPOs, accretion flows, and black hole spin.
On two occasions, we obtained nearly simultaneous ~ 4 kilosecond snapshot observations of the Galactic black hole and microquasar XTE J1550-564 with Chandra and RXTE near the peak of its May, 2000 outburst. The low-energy sensitivity of Chandra and t
We study hard states of the black-hole binary XTE J1550--564 during its 2000 outburst. In order to explain those states at their highest luminosities, $Lsim 10%$ of the Eddington luminosity, $L_{rm E}$, we propose a specific hot accretion flow model.
We report optical, infrared, and X-ray light curves for the outburst, in 2000, of the black hole candidate XTE J1550-564. We find that the start of the outburst in the H and V bands precedes that seen in the RXTE All Sky Monitor by 11.5 +/- 0.9 and 8
In 1998 September, the X-ray transient XTE J1550-564 underwent a major outburst in soft and hard X-rays, followed by a radio flare. Australian Long Baseline Array images obtained shortly after the peak in the radio flare showed evolving structure. Th
The bright X-ray transient H 1743-322 was observed daily by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) during most of its 8-month outburst in 2003. We present a detailed spectral analysis and a supporting timing analysis of all of these data, and we disc
