Abstract

Astrophysical plasma ejections (jets) are formed and powered by black holes that accrete material from their companion star in binary systems. Black hole X-ray binary systems constitute potential powerful galactic and extragalactic neutrino and gamma-ray sources. After being accelerated to highly relativistic velocities and subjected to various energy-consuming interactions, the lepto-hadronic content of the jets produces secondary particles such as pions and muons that decay to gamma-ray photons and neutrinos heading towards the Earth. In this work, we employ a jet emission model in order to predict the neutrino and gamma-ray integral fluxes emanating from some of the most investigated and prominent stellar black hole X-ray binary systems in the Milky Way, such as GRO J1655-40, Cygnus X-1, SS 433, and GRS 1915+105. For the sake of comparison, we also include an extragalactic system, namely, LMC X-1, located in the Large Magellanic Cloud. For the case of gamma-ray emissions, we also include absorption effects due to X-ray emission from the accretion disk and the black hole corona, as well as ultraviolet (UV) emission from the binary system’s companion star.
