X-ray binaries with relativistic jets -- GRS 1915+105

The microquasar GRS 1915+105

Mirabel et al. (1994) detected apparent superluminal motions in first Galactic source GRS 1915+105, X-ray and radio transient mapping of which with VLA has revealed to possess relativistic jets with true resolved velocity of 0.92c.

See Fig.9 from Dhawan+, 2000, ApJ, v543, n1)
where Radio flux density variations are shown at three wavelengths, monitored by the VLA during the plateau state on 1997 May 15, 06 - 16 UTC. Inset is the VLBA at 2 cm, from observations during the gap in the VLA coverage from 10 to 12 UTC.
