    A tool to separate optical/infrared disc and jet emission in X-ray transient outbursts: the colour-magnitude diagrams of XTE J1550-564
    It is now established that thermal disc emission and non-thermal jet emission can both play a role at optical/infrared (OIR) wavelengths in X-ray transients...

    A Wildly Flickering Jet in the Black Hole X-Ray Binary MAXI J1535–571
    We report on the results of optical, near-infrared (NIR), and mid-infrared observations of the black hole X-ray binary candidate (BHB) MAXI J1535–571 during its...

    An Evolving Compact Jet in the Black Hole X-Ray Binary MAXI J1836–194
    We report striking changes in the broadband spectrum of the compact jet of the black hole transient MAXI J1836–194 over state transitions during its discovery...

    An infrared FWHM-K<SUB>2</SUB> correlation to uncover highly reddened quiescent black holes
    Among the sample of Galactic transient X-ray binaries (SXTs) discovered to date, about 70 have been proposed as likely candidates to host a black hole. Yet...

    An underlying clock in the extreme flip-flop state transitions of the black hole transient Swift J1658.2-4242
    Aims: Flip-flops are top-hat-like X-ray flux variations, which have been observed in some transient accreting black hole binary systems, and feature...

    Black hole masses and starbursts in X-shaped radio sources
    It has been suggested that the X-shaped morphology observed in some radio sources can reflect either a recent merger of two supermassive black holes (SMBHs) or...

    Black hole masses for 14 gravitationally lensed quasars
    Aims: We have estimated black hole masses (M BH) for 14 gravitationally lensed quasars using Balmer lines; we also provide estimates based on MgII and CIV...

    Black Hole Powered Nebulae and a Case Study of the Ultraluminous X-Ray Source IC 342 X-1
    We present new radio, optical, and X-ray observations of three ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) that are associated with large-scale nebulae. We report the...

    Black hole transients
    Sixteen years of observations of black hole transients with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, complemented by other X-ray observatories and ground-based optical...
