THE PHYSICS OF THE “HEARTBEAT” STATE OF GRS 1915+105

We present the first detailed phase-resolved spectral analysis of a joint Chandra High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer and Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer observation of the ρ variability class in the microquasar GRS 1915+105. The ρ cycle displays a high-amplitude, double-peaked flare that recu...
