    Hibernating black holes revealed by photometric mass functions
    We present a novel strategy to uncover the Galactic population of quiescent black holes (BHs). This is based on a new concept, the photometric mass function...

    High time resolution optical/X-ray cross-correlations for X-ray binaries: anticorrelations and rapid variability
    Using simultaneous observations in X-rays and optical, we have performed a homogeneous analysis of the cross-correlation behaviours of four X-ray binaries...

    High-precision optical polarimetry of the accreting black hole V404 Cyg during the 2015 June outburst
    Our simultaneous three-colour (BVR) polarimetric observations of the low-mass black hole X-ray binary V404 Cyg show a small but statistically significant change...

    Hubble spectroscopy of LB-1: Comparison with B+black-hole and Be+stripped-star models
    Context. LB-1 (alias ALS 8775) has been proposed as either an X-ray dim B-type star plus black hole (B+BH) binary or a Be star plus an inflated stripped star...
