Close-binary central stars of planetary nebulae offer a unique tool with which to study the critical and yet poorly understood common-envelope phase of binary...
Powerful outflows in the central parsecs of the low-luminosity active galactic nucleus NGC 1386
Low-luminosity active galactic nuclei, i.e. L_{bol}/Ledd ∼ 10-6-10-3, constitute the bulk population of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Powerful jets, common in...
Powerful warm winds discovered during a neutron star eruption
An international team of astronomers, including researchers from the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (IAC), has discovered blasts of hot, warm and cold...
Probing gamma-ray production in relativistic jets of flat spectrum radio quasars
The MAGIC telescopes discovered very high energy (VHE, E>100 GeV) gamma-ray emission coming from the distant Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar (FSRQ) PKS 1222+21 (4C...
Probing Jet Launching in Neutron Star X-Ray Binaries: The Variable and Polarized Jet of SAX J1808.4-3658
We report on an optical photometric and polarimetric campaign on the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar (AMXP) SAX J1808.4-3658 during its 2019 outburst. The...
QSO2 outflow characterization using data obtained with OSIRIS at the Gran Telescopio Canarias
Context. Ionized outflows are ubiquitous in non-radio-loud obscured quasars (QSO2s) at different redshifts. However, the actual size of the outflows and their...
RAD@home discovery of a one-sided radio jet hitting the companion galaxy
Minkowski's Object and `Death Star galaxy' are two of the famous cases of rare instances when a radio jet has been observed to directly hit a neighbouring...
Radio counterparts of unidentified EGRET gamma-ray sources.
We present one new radio identification and one confirmation of two high-latitude gamma-ray sources detected by CGRO-EGRET, based on flux density measurements...
We present high-sensitivity eMERLIN radio images of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151 at 1.51 GHz. We compare the new eMERLIN images to those from archival MERLIN...
