We report radio (NRAO VLA and Australia Telescope Compact Array), soft X-ray (Rossi X-Ray T iming Explorer ASM), and hard X-ray (Compton Gamma Ray Observatory BATSE) observations of a 1998 outburst in the recurring X-ray transient 4U 1630[47, where radio emission was detected for the Ðrst time. The radio observations identify the position of 4U 1630[47 to within 1A. Because the radio emission is optically thin with a spectral index of D[0.8 during the rise, peak, and decay of the initial radio event, the emission is probably coming from an optically thin radio jet ejected over a period of time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
