Scientific paper

GRS 1915+105 is the most prominent microquasar and the most energetic object in our Galaxy. It has remained unique among its class for the large variety of temporal behaviours in different time scales. Multiwavelength observations showing radio, IR and X-ray oscilations, with time delays depending on the wavelength, revealed in the past the intimate link between the accretion disc and the jet ejection. However, the mechanism of jet formation and the origin of the delay between the flares in different wavelengths remains unclear. Here we propose simultaneous X-ray and IR observations of GRS 1915+105 with unprecedented high time resolution, using EPIC-pn in Burst mode and VLT/ISAAC s Aladdin array in its new Burst mode, with integration times as short as 3.2ms.
