    The Massive Neutron Star or Low-Mass Black Hole in 2S 0921-630
    We report on the optical spectroscopy of the eclipsing halo low-mass X-ray binary 2S 0921-630, which reveals the absorption-line radial velocity curve of the K0...

    The Massive Progenitor of the Possible Type II-Linear Supernova 2009hd in Messier 66
    We present early- and late-time photometric and spectroscopic observations of supernova (SN) 2009hd in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 3627 (M66). This SN is one...

    The massive relic galaxy NGC 1277 is dark matter deficient. From dynamical models of integral-field stellar kinematics out to five effective radii
    According to the Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) cosmology, present-day galaxies with stellar masses M ⋆ > 10 11 M ⊙ should contain a sizable fraction of dark matter...

    The massive white dwarf in the recurrent nova TCrB
    We have obtained I-, J-, H- and K-band light curves of the recurrent nova TCrB. We find that we can fit the J-band light curve only with a Roche lobe filling...

    The MASTER Global Robotic Telescope Network: Observations of Asteroid NEA 2015 TB145
    The results of white-light photometry for a uniquely long series of data (13.5 hours of observations, 1124 measurements) for the Near-Earth Asteroid (NEA) 2015...
  • Publication
    The maximum stellar mass, star-cluster formation and composite stellar populations
    We demonstrate that the mass of the most massive star in a cluster correlates non-trivially with the cluster mass. A simple algorithm, according to which a...
  • Publication
    The mean star formation rate of X-ray selected active galaxies and its evolution from z ~ 2.5: results from PEP-Herschel
    We study relationships between star-formation rate (SFR) and the accretion luminosity and nuclear obscuration of X-ray selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs)...

    The merger history of massive spheroids since z ˜ 1 is size-independent
    Using a compilation of 379 massive (stellar mass M ≳ 1011 M⊙) spheroid-like galaxies from the near-infrared Palomar/DEEP-2 survey, we investigated, up to z ˜ 1...
