Radio precedes X-ray Compton luminosity by ~3 days in the rising hard state but lags by ~8 days in the decaying hard state of GX 339-4, with inner magnetic field strength estimated from accretion rate and truncation radius accounting for both.

Searching for the Third Wheel: High-Contrast Imaging Constraints on Tertiaries to Black Hole and Neutron Star Binaries
High-contrast imaging of 18 compact-object binaries yields no robust tertiary detections and rules out main-sequence tertiaries at projected separations greater than 500 au for Gaia systems and 2000 au for BH LMXBs.

Radio-X-ray Time Lags in GX 339-4: Probing Magnetic Field Transport in Black Hole Accretion
Radio precedes X-ray Compton luminosity by ~3 days in the rising hard state but lags by ~8 days in the decaying hard state of GX 339-4, with inner magnetic field strength estimated from accretion rate and truncation radius accounting for both.
