Scientific paper

We propose to use ACIS-I to image the fields of the eight X-ray binaries with strong evidence for relativistic jets. In this way we will investigate the energetics of such outflows by observing the energy they deposit in the ISM through interactions with the ambient medium. This will provide an estimate of the power of such outflows from neutron stars and black holes which is independent of the assumptions associated with estimates based on light curves and radio observations, as well as shedding light on their local environments. All the fields will be quasi-simultaneously mapped at a comparable resolution at radio wavelengths to examine the relation between synchrotron-emitting electrons and high energy emission.
