    The powerful jet of an off-nuclear intermediate-mass black hole in the spiral galaxy NGC 2276
    Jet ejection by accreting black holes is a mass invariant mechanism unifying stellar and supermassive black holes (SMBHs) that should also apply for...

    The puzzling case of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934: flaring optical emission during quiescence
    We present an optical (gri) study during quiescence of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934 performed with the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias...

    The puzzling orbital period evolution of the LMXB AX J1745.6-2901
    The orbital period evolution of X-ray binaries provides fundamental clues to understanding mechanisms of angular momentum transfer and loss in these systems. We...

    The Return of the Bursts: Thermonuclear Flashes from Circinus X-1
    We report the detection of 15 X-ray bursts with RXTE and Swift observations of the peculiar X-ray binary Circinus X-1 (Cir X-1) during its 2010 May X-ray re...

    The return of the spin period in DW Cnc and evidence of new high state outbursts
    DW Cnc is an intermediate polar which has previously been observed in both high and low states. Observations of the high state of DW Cnc have previously...

    The Role of the Accretion Disk, Dust, and Jets in the IR Emission of Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei
    We use recent high-resolution infrared (IR; 1-20 μm) photometry to examine the origin of the IR emission in low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGN). The...

    The structure of BB Doradus in quiescence
    Spectroscopic observations during a low state of BB Dor reveal a complex emission distribution. Irradiation by the white dwarf as well as magnetic fields of the...
