EVN Observations of GRS1915+105

Abstract

We obtained EVN observations of the X-ray transient source GRS1915+105 in its radio-loud state. In 2 images obtained before a major flare, the source is resolved, showing two opposite asymmetric jets. This indicates that steady jets exist also before a major flare, with an estimated velocity of 0.2-0.6c.
