We present a detailed analysis of the X-ray/IR fast variability of the Black-Hole Transient GX 339-4 during its low/hard state in August 2008. Thanks to simultaneous high time-resolution observations made with the VLT and RXTE, we performed…

We present the results of the analysis of a sample of 17 low-luminosity (L_x < 1e42 erg/s), radio loud AGNs in massive galaxies. The sample is extracted from the SDSS database and it spans uniformly a wide range in optical [OIII] emission…

Despite significant strides made towards understanding accretion, outflow, and emission processes in the Galactic Center supermassive black hole Sagittarius A*, the presence of jets has neither been rejected nor proven. We investigate here…

We calculate the flux and size ratio of radio emitting features moving in antiparallel directions at relativistic speeds, taking into account that the pattern we observe may move at a velocity different from the one of the emitting plasma.…

We collect long term $\gamma$-ray, optical and radio $15$ GHz light curves of quasar object PMN J2345-1555. The correlation analyses between them are performed via the local cross-correlation function (LCCF). We found that all the optical…

Flat radio spectra of compact jets launched by both supermassive and stellar-mass black holes are explained by an interplay of self-absorbed synchrotron emission up to some distance along the jet and optically thin synchrotron at larger…

With the purpose to investigate the radio emission of new ultracool objects, we carried out a targeted search in the recently discovered system VHS J125601.92$-$125723.9 (hereafter VHS 1256$-$1257); this system is composed by an equal-mass…

We present quasi-simultaneous radio, (sub-)millimetre, and X-ray observations of the Galactic black hole X-ray binary GX 339-4, taken during its 2017--2018 outburst, where the source remained in the hard X-ray spectral state. During this…

We present observations of the X-ray transient XTE J1118+480 during its Low/Hard X-ray state outburst in 2000, at radio and sub-millimetre wavelengths with the VLA, Ryle Telescope, MERLIN and JCMT. The high-resolution MERLIN observations…

The candidate black hole X-ray binary Swift J1753.5-0127 faded to quiescence in 2016 November, after a prolonged outburst that was discovered in 2005. Nearly three months later the system displayed renewed activity that lasted through 2017…

Using the flux resolved spectroscopy for the first time, we analyse the RXTE/PCA data of the black hole X-ray binaries GRS 1915+105 and IGR J17091-3624, when both sources show large amplitude, quasi-regular oscillations in 2.0-60.0 keV…

We have discovered an X-ray jet due to material ejected from the black hole X-ray transient XTE J1550-564. The discovery was first reported by Corbel et al. (Science, 298, 196 and astro-ph/0210224), and here, we present an analysis of the…

Using the Very Long Baseline Array, we have measured a trigonometric parallax for the micro quasar GRS 1915+105, which contains a black hole and a K-giant companion. This yields a direct distance estimate of 8.6 (+2.0,-1.6) kpc and a…

We derived the black hole fundamental plane relationship among the 1.4GHz radio luminosity (L_r), 0.1-2.4keV X-ray luminosity (L_X), and black hole mass (M) from a uniform broad line SDSS AGN sample including both radio loud and radio quiet…

Non-thermal magnetospheric processes in the vicinity of supermassive black holes have attracted particular attention in recent times. Gap-type particle acceleration accompanied by curvature and Inverse Compton radiation could in principle…

In the last 10 years multi-wavelength fast variability studies of low mass X-ray binaries have shown a dramatic development. A key discovery was the detection of O-IR sub-second fluctuations in two black-hole transients, lagging the X-rays…

In order to further test our hypothesis that jets and disk around compact accreting objects are symbiotic features we investigate the newly discovered superluminal galactic radio jets GRS 1915+105 and GRO J1655-40 and the two famous…

We examine the X-ray spectral and temporal behavior of the Galactic black hole candidate source GRS 1915+105 during its spectral state transition observed in 1997 March - August. The source was making a slow transition from a low-hard state…

Stellar-mass black holes with relativistic jets, also known as microquasars, mimic the behavior of quasars and active galactic nuclei. Because timescales around stellar-mass black holes are orders of magnitude smaller than those around more…

VLA observations at 1477 MHz revealed the presence of a radio mini-halo surrounding the faint central point-like radio source in the Ophiuchus cluster of galaxies. In this work we present a study of the radio emission from this cluster of…
