Relativistic outflows, or `Jets', represent one of the most obvious, important and yet poorly-explained phenomena associated with accreting relativistic objects, including X-ray binaries. In the past decade we have observed highly relativistic flows, the resultant in-situ particle acceleration in the ISM, and begun to unearth the subtleties of the accretion -- outflow coupling on timescales from seconds to years. In this chapter I shall attempt, subjectively, to describe the state of research into jets from X-ray binaries as it stands at the beginning of 2003.

  1. Spectropolarimetric detection of baryonic mass loading in a transient relativistic jet: application to the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8$-$1613

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Transient Faraday-complex spectropolarimetric structure detected during radio flaring of Swift J1727 implies internal Faraday rotation from electron-proton jet plasma with rotating mass ~10^21 g, a small fraction of a...

  2. The Mid-infrared Emitting Jet in the Black Hole V404 Cygni in Quiescence

    astro-ph.HE 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Fast 21-micron flaring and a flat radio-to-mid-infrared spectrum show that the mid-infrared excess in the quiescent black hole binary V404 Cygni comes from a persistent relativistic jet.

  3. Observational Biases and Improved Modelling of Off-axis Relativistic Jets

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Incorporating receding-jet non-detections tightens kinematic posteriors by >40% for MAXI J1535, while rest-frame modelling of MAXI J1820 shows strong observational bias against Γ0 ≳ 5 and receding ejecta.

  4. VLBI Diagnostics of Off-axis Jets in Radio Flares of Tidal Disruption Events

    astro-ph.HE 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Synthetic VLBI images show that an off-axis jet in AT20118hyz would display superluminal centroid motion and a non-monotonic image aspect ratio, cleanly separating it from a delayed sub-relativistic outflow.

  5. The peculiar hard state behaviour of the black hole X-ray binary Swift J1727.8$-$1613

    astro-ph.HE 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    In its 2023-2024 outburst, the black hole binary Swift J1727.8-1613 showed one of the most radio-quiet radio-X-ray tracks known, with X-ray spectral softening beginning just as the track changed slope.

  6. Radio-X-ray Time Lags in GX 339-4: Probing Magnetic Field Transport in Black Hole Accretion

    astro-ph.HE 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Time lag analysis using ICCF on GX 339-4 data reveals state-dependent radio-X-ray delays interpreted as evidence for magnetic field transport linking the inner accretion flow and jet.

  7. An Ejection Event Captured by VLBI During the Outburst of Swift J1727.8$-$1613

    astro-ph.HE 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A 6-hour VLBI observation of Swift J1727.8-1613 reveals a fast-moving radio blob or pair of symmetric blobs, indicating a discrete ejection event during a state transition.

  8. 4th TDAMM Workshop White Paper

    astro-ph.HE 2026-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A community white paper arguing TDAMM science is becoming follow-up-limited, and proposing pre-negotiated community observing plans with infrastructure, policy, and capability recommendations.

  9. GRMHD and GRRT Simulations of Black Hole Accretion: Flares, Precession, and Complex Spacetimes

    astro-ph.HE 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Simulations of accreting black holes in standard and complex spacetimes indicate that magnetic geometry, quantum corrections, and binary dynamics influence flares, precession, photon rings, and multi-wavelength variab...
