Scientific paper

Since INTEGRAL's AO1, we have conducted a monitoring program of GRS 1915+105. As expected, the source was shown to be very variable during the monitoring, exhibiting different known classes of variability. At times during the monitoring, the source is observed to undergo sequences of X-ray dips and spikes accompanied by radio activity, suggesting ejection events. Here we show one example of this, and we propose a scenario whereby the Comptonizing medium, responsible for the hard X-ray emission observed, is ejected at the end of each sequence.
