Multiwavelength Emission from Galactic Jets: The Case of the Microquasar SS433
@article{Sudoh2020MultiwavelengthEF, title={Multiwavelength Emission from Galactic Jets: The Case of the Microquasar SS433}, author={Takahiro Sudoh and Yoshiyuki Inoue and D. Khangulyan}, journal={The Astrophysical Journal}, year={2020}, volume={889} }
SS433 is a Galactic microquasar with powerful jets, where very-high-energy particles are produced. We study particle acceleration in the jets of SS433 through the use of recent multiwavelength data from radio to TeV gamma-ray. We first present a general framework for the particle acceleration, cooling, and transport in relativistic jets. We then apply this to two X-ray knots in the jets of SS433, focusing on leptonic emission. Our detailed treatment of particle transport and evolution produces…
