The evolution of the current outburst of the low mass X-ray binary IGR J17091-3624
Abstract
The transient low mass X-ray binary IGR J17091-3624 is a key source to understanding accretion/ejection processes in X-ray binaries. Observations during its best studied outburst in 2011 have shown that the source shows variability patterns that have so far been unique to GRS 1915+105 (Altamirano et al., 2011, ApJ, 742, L17).
