The Chandra AO1 HETGS observation of the micro-quasar GRS 1915+105 in the low hard state reveals (1) neutral K absorption edges from Fe, Si, Mg, and S in cold gas, and (2) highly ionized (Fe XXV and Fe XXVI) absorption attributed to a hot disk, disk wind, or corona. The neutral edges reveal anomalous Si and Fe abundances which we attribute to surrounding cold material in/near the environment of GRS 1915+105. We also point out the exciting possibility for the first astrophysical detection of XAFS attributed to material in interstellar grains. We place constraints on the ionization parameter, temperature, and hydrogen equivalent number density of the absorber near the accretion disk based on the detection of the H- and He-like Fe absorption. Observed spectral changes in the ionized lines which track the light curve point to changes in both the ionizing flux and density of the absorber, supporting the presence of a flow. Details can be found in Lee et al., 2002, ApJ., 567, 1102
We propose a scenario for a periodic filling and emptying of the accretion disc of GRS 1915+105, by computing the mass transfer rate from the donor and comparing it with the observed accretion rate. The binary parameters found by Greiner et al. (2001
After 26 years in outburst, the black hole X-ray binary GRS 1915+105 dimmed considerably in early 2018; its flux dropped sharply in mid-2019, and it has remained faint ever since. This faint period, the obscured state, is punctuated by occasional X-r
We present multiepoch VLBA observations of the compact jet of GRS 1915+105 conducted at 15.0 and 8.4 GHz during a {it plateau} state of the source in 2003 March-April. These observations show that the compact jet is clearly asymmetric. Assuming an in
We present data from the first of six monitoring Open Time observations of GRS 1915+105 undertaken with the orbiting INTEGRAL satellite. The source was clearly detected with all three X-ray and gamma-ray instruments on board. GRS 1915+105 was in a hi
The time-averaged 30 ks Chandra HETGS observation of the micro-quasar GRS 1915+105 in the low hard state reveals for the first time in this source neutral K absorption edges from Fe, Si, Mg, & S. Ionized resonance absorption from H-, and He-like Fe (
