We present the international collaboration MINE (Multi-lambda Integral NEtwork) aimed at conducting multi-wavelength observations of X-ray binaries and microquasars simultaneously with INTEGRAL. The first results on GRS 1915+105 are encouraging and those to come should help us to understand the physics of the accretion and ejection phenomena around a compact object. A collaboration such as MINE could be very useful for observing quasars and microquasars simultaneously with HESS and later with ANTARES.

We present the international collaboration MINE (Multi-lambda Integral NEtwork) aimed at conducting multi-wavelength observations of X-ray binaries and microquasars simultaneously with the INTEGRAL gamma-ray satellite. We will focus on the 2003 March
-April campaign of observations of the peculiar microquasar GRS 1915+105 gathering radio, IR and X-ray data. The source was observed 3 times in the plateau state, before and after a major radio and X-ray flare. It showed strong steady optically thick radio emission corresponding to powerful compact jets resolved in the radio images, bright near-infrared emission, a strong QPO at 2.5 Hz in the X-rays and a power law dominated spectrum without cutoff in the 3-300 keV range. We compare the different observations, their multi-wavelength light curves, including JEM-X, ISGRI and SPI, and the parameters deduced from fitting the spectra obtained with these instruments on board INTEGRAL.
Very high energy (VHE; >100 GeV) gamma-ray observations of PG 1553+113 were made with the High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) in 2005 and 2006. A strong signal, ~10 standard deviations, is detected by HESS during the 2 years of observations (24.8
hours live time). The time-averaged energy spectrum, measured between 225 GeV to ~1.3 TeV, is characterized by a very steep power law (photon index of Gamma = (4.5 +- 0.3 {stat} +- 0.1 {syst}). The integral flux above 300 GeV is ~3.4% of the Crab Nebula flux and shows no evidence for any variations, on any time scale. H+K (1.45-2.45 micron) spectroscopy of PG 1553+113 was performed in March 2006 with SINFONI, an integral field spectrometer of the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile. The redshift of PG 1553+113 is still unknown, as no absorption or emission lines were found.
The ANTARES project aims at the construction of a neutrino telescope 2500 m below the surface of the Mediterranean sea, close to the southern French coast. The apparatus will consist of a 3D array of photomultiplier tubes, which detects the Cherenkov
light emitted by upward going neutrino-induced muons. High-energy neutrinos may be produced in powerful cosmic accelerators, such as, gamma-ray bursters, active galactic nuclei, supernova remnants, and microquasars. We have estimated the event rate in ANTARES of neutrinos coming from these sources, and particularly for a microquasar model, and found that for some of these sources the detection rate can be up to several events per year.
We report on the results from the observations in very high energy band (VHE, E_gamma > 100GeV) of the black hole X-ray binary (BHXB) Cygnus X-1. The observations were performed with the MAGIC telescope, for a total of 40 hours during 26 nights, span
ning the period between June and November 2006. We report on the results of the searches for steady and variable gamma-ray signals, including the first experimental evidence for an intense flare, of duration between 1.5 and 24 hours.
