The 26th anniversary outburst of jet-driving symbiotic binary MWC 560: results from Chandra, Swift, and optical spectroscopy
Abstract
The symbiotic star MWC 560 = V694 Mon, which is believed to usually drive a jet along the line of sight (e.g., Schmid et al. 2001), is undergoing a sustained outburst (ATel #8653) rivaling its previous brightest outburst of 1990 (Tomov et al. 1990, Leibowitz and Formiggini 2015).
