We report on the detection of optical/near-infrared (O-IR) quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) from the black hole X-ray transient Swift J1727.8-1613. We obtained three X-ray and O-IR high-time-resolution observations of the source during…
The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) has made feasible for the first time the search for high-frequency (~ 100 Hz) periodic features in black hole candidate (BHC) systems. Such a feature, with a 67 Hz frequency, recently has been…
We investigated the temporal behavior of the new black hole transient XTE J1650-500 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) as the source made a transition to the low/hard state during the decay of the 2001 outburst. We find QPOs in the…
The USA experiment on ARGOS and RXTE have exensively observed the X-ray transient XTE J1118+480 during its recent outburst in 2000 April--June. We present detailed monitoring of the evolution of a low frequency QPO which drifts from 0.07 Hz…
We compare our calculations of the frequencies of the fundamental g, c, and p--modes of relativistic thin accretion disks with recent observations of high frequency QPOs in X-ray binaries with black hole candidates. These classes of modes…
In order to search for the evidence of quasi-periodic oscillation (QPO) in blazar, multicolor optical observations of the BL Lacertae object S5 0716+714 were performed from 2005 to 2012. For $I$ band on March 19 2010 with low variability…
The microquasar GRS 1915+105 is known to exhibit a very variable X-ray emission on different time scales and patterns. We propose a system of two ordinary differential equations, adapted from the Hindmarsh-Rose model, with two dynamical…
We present a model-independent analysis of the short-timescale energy dependence of low frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in the X-ray flux of GRS 1915+105. The QPO frequency in this source has previously been observed to depend…
We investigate the origin of the ubiquitous 0.5 - 10 Hz QPO in the Galactic microquasar GRS 1915+105. Using the archival X-ray data from RXTE, we make a wide band X-ray spectral fitting to the source during a low-hard state observed in 1999…
Recent results on the inner disk oscillations found in GRS 1915+105 are reviewed. QPOs during the low state are used as a marker for such oscillations and the physical picture emerging from a combined X-ray spectral and timing analysis is…
In this work, we analyzed the long term gamma-ray data by a Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) of blazar S2 0109+22, ranging from 2008 to 2023. The quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) of blazars aided in investigating the physical…
High-frequency quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) appear in general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of magnetically choked accretion flows around rapidly rotating black holes (BHs). We perform polarized radiative transfer…
Three different types of very intense, quasi-regular X-ray bursts have been observed from the Galactic superluminal X-ray transient source GRS 1915+105 with the Pointed Proportional Counters of the Indian X-ray Astronomy Experiment onboard…
While there has been an increase in interest in the possibility of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) in blazars, the search has hitherto been restricted to sources with well-sampled light curves. Objects with light curves that include gaps…
We have discovered rapid Quasi Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) in RXTE/PCA measurements of the pulsating tail of the 27th December 2004 giant flare of SGR 1806-20. QPOs at about 92.5Hz are detected in a 50s interval starting 170s after the…
We report high sensitivity dual-frequency observations of radio oscillations from GRS 1915+105 following the decay of a major flare event in 2000 July. The oscillations are clearly observed at both frequencies, and the time-resolved…
We present the results obtained from broadband X-ray timing and spectral analysis of black hole candidate MAXI J1803-298 using an AstroSat observation on May 11-12, 2021. Four periodic absorption dips with a periodicity of $7.02 \pm 0.18$…
We report simultaneous observations of the black hole candidate X-ray transient GRS 1915+105 in the infrared at K and in the radio at 2 cm. Oscillations of period 26 min were observed in both wavebands, having (dereddened) peak--peak…
We present a timing analysis of the black hole X-ray binary (BHXRB) 4U 1630-47 using AstroSat observations from 10-19 March 2023, for the first time capturing a rare and rapid transition in variability properties. Within less than a day,…
We observed the low-mass X-ray binary and Z source GX 17+2 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer during 6-8 Feb 1997, 1-4 Apr 1997, and 26-27 Jul 1997. The X-ray color-color diagram shows a clear Z track. Two simultaneous kHz quasi-periodic…
