Description
The black hole binary V404 Cyg has provided a primary test bed for
models of accretion in quiescent black hole binaries because it is by
far the brightest in the X-ray band. Most published work, however, has
been based on non-simultaneous data spanning many years since its major
outburst in 1989. We present the most complete spectral energy
distribution of the source, primarily based on a coordinated and
simultaneous multiwavelength campaign in 2003, but drawing in other
available data. We will discuss the components detected in the binary in
the context of models of the quiescent state, and crucially exploit time
resolved data to discuss connections between them. This work was
supported by awards from the Chandra and XMM-Newton GO programs.
