Flaring variability of Microquasars

We discuss flaring variability of radio emission of microquasars, measured in monitoring programs with the RATAN‐600 radio telescope. We carried out a multi‐frequency (1–30 GHz) daily monitoring of the radio flux variability of the microquasars SS433, $GRS1915+105,$ and Cyg X‐3 during the recent sets in 2005–2007. A lot of bright short‐time flares were detected from GRS $1915+105$ and they could be associated with active X‐ray events. In January 2006 we detected a drop down of the quiescent fluxes from Cyg X‐3 (from 100 to $∼20 mJy$⁠), then the 1 Jy‐flare was detected on 2 February 2006 after 18 days of quenched radio emission. The daily spectra of the flare in the maximum were flat from 2 to 110 GHz, using the quasi‐simultaneous observations at 110 GHz with the RT45m telescope and the NMA millimeter array of NRO in Japan. Several bright radio flaring events (1–15 Jy) followed during the continuing state of very variable and intensive 1–12 keV X‐ray emission $(∼0.5 Crab),$ which was monitored in the RXTE ASM program. Swift/BAT ASM hard X‐ray fluxes correlated strongly with flaring radio data. The various spectral and temporal characteristics of the light curves from the microquasars could be determined from such comparison. We conclude that monitoring of the flaring radio emission is a good tracer of jet activity X‐ray binaries.
