Abstract

In the last few years, the rapid development of gamma-ray observations has open a new window on X-ray binaries (XRBs) sources. In this talk we introduce a new lepto-hadronic model that is based on successful work fitting the lower energy, broadband spectra of XRBs in the compact jetdominated state. Protons (and electrons) are accelerated throughout the jet and cool via radiation and inelastic collisions, and we calculate spectral energy distributions (SEDs) including both hadronic and leptonic induced processes. This model can also be scaled to describe the SEDs of low-luminosity active galactic nuclei such as our own Galactic Center black hole Sgr A∗.
