    X-ray spectral variability of seven LINER nuclei with XMM-Newton and Chandra data
    Context. One of the most distinctive features in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is the variability of their emission. Variability has been discovered at X-ray, UV...
  • Publication
    X-ray variability of 104 active galactic nuclei. XMM-Newton power-spectrum density profiles
    Context. Active galactic nuclei (AGN), powered by accretion onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs), are thought to be scaled up versions of Galactic black hole X...

    X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity. I. Project description
    Observations of individual massive stars, super-luminous supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, and gravitational wave events involving spectacular black hole mergers...
  • Publication
    X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity. II. DR1: Advanced optical data products for the Magellanic Clouds
    Context. The XShootU project aims to obtain ground-based optical to near-infrared spectroscopy of all targets observed by the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) under...
  • Publication
    X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity. III. Terminal wind speeds of ULLYSES massive stars
    Context. The winds of massive stars have a significant impact on stellar evolution and on the surrounding medium. The maximum speed reached by these outflows...
  • Publication
    X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity: IV. Spectral analysis methods and exemplary results for O stars
    Context. The spectral analysis of hot, massive stars is a fundamental astrophysical method of determining their intrinsic properties and feedback. With their...
  • Publication
    X-Shooting ULLYSES: Massive stars at low metallicity: V. Effect of metallicity on surface abundances of O stars
    Context. Massive stars rotate faster, on average, than lower mass stars. Stellar rotation triggers hydrodynamical instabilities which transport angular momentum...

    XMM-Newton and Chandra measurements of the AGN intrinsic absorption: dependence on luminosity and redshift
    We combine bright XMM-Newton data with the Chandra Deep Field South observations to explore the behavior of the intrinsic AGN absorption, as a function of...

    XMM-Newton and ESO observations of the two unidentified γ-ray sources 3EG J0616-3310 and 3EG J1249-8330
    The limited angular resolution of γ-ray telescopes prevents a direct identification of the majority of sources detected so far. This is particularly true for...
