The cataclysmic variable SDSSJ 015543.40+002807.2 is confirmed to be a magnetic system of the AM Herculis type. With an orbital period of 87.13 min, it is also the shortest-period eclipsing Polar known. Monitoring with XMM-Newton finds a…
We report the serendipituous discovery of the new eclipsing polar 2XMMp J131223.4+173659. Its striking X-ray light curve attracted immediate interest when we were visually inspecting the source products of the 2XMMp catalogue. This light…
We present new photometric and spectroscopic observations of the transient supersoft X-ray source RX J0537.7-7034 and find a periodicity of approximately 3.5 hrs. This establishes RX J0537.7-7034 as the supersoft X-ray source with the…
The hard X-ray source 2PBC J0658.0-1746 was proposed as an eclipsing magnetic cataclysmic variable of the polar type, based on optical follow-ups. We present the first spectral and timing analysis at X-ray energies with XMM-Newton,…
We present RXTE and BeppoSAX observations of the Intermediate Polar V709 Cas acquired in 1997 and 1998 respectively. The X-ray emission from 0.1 to 30keV is dominated by the strong pulsation at the rotational period of the white dwarf…
The X-ray source RX J004717.4-251811 in the nearby starburst galaxy NGC 253 was found to undergo changes from a low to a high state twice, during an XMM-Newton EPIC observation in December 2000 and also during a Chandra observation one year…
We present a low-resolution discovery spectrum and CCD-photometry of the bright X-ray source 1RXS J012851.9-233931 found in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. These first observations suggest that the source is an AM Herculis star (polar) accreting…
We report the results of an analysis of data obtained with the INTEGRAL, Swift and RXTE observatories during the 2010 April and September outbursts of the X-ray pulsar RX J0440.9+4431. The temporal and spectral properties of the pulsar in a…
We present the first time resolved medium resolution optical spectroscopy of the recently identified peculiar Intermediate Polar (IP) 1RXSJ154814.5-452845, which allows us to precisely determine the binary orbital period…
We have analyzed nearly eight years of MACHO optical photometry of the supersoft X-ray binary RX J0513.9-6951 and derived a revised orbital period and ephemeris. Previously published velocities are reinterpreted using the new ephemeris. We…
We report on optical and RXTE observations of a new high-latitude bursting X-ray transient, XTE J2123-058. We identified the optical counterpart, measured the 5.9573 hr orbital period and constrained the binary inclination and the source…
We present X-ray and optical data of the newly discovered AM Her variable RX J1802.1+1804 = V884 Her. This X-ray source was observed in the ROSAT All-Sky-Survey in September 1990 and subsequently discovered as a highly variable and soft…
We present near-infrared $J$ band photometric observations of the intermediate polar WX Pyx. The frequency analysis indicates the presence of a period at 1559.2 $\pm$ 0.2 seconds which is attributed to the spin period of the white dwarf.…
XMM-Newton observations of the polar SDSSJ155331.12+551614.5 reveal that all the X-ray flux emerges at energies less than 2 keV. The best fit to the spectrum is with a thermal plasma with kT=0.8 keV plus a 20-90 ev black body, yielding a…
The system RX J0806.3+1527 (HM Cnc) is a pulsating X-ray source with 100 per cent modulation on a period of 321.5 s (5.4 min). This period reflects the orbital motion of a close binary consisting of two interacting white dwarfs. Here we…
A new cataclysmic variable is identified as the optical counterpart of the faint and hard X-ray source RX J0757.0+6306 discovered during the ROSAT all-sky survey. Strong double-peaked emission lines bear evidence of an accretion disc via an…
We present the results of time-resolved optical photometry and spectroscopy of the X-ray transient XTE J1859+226 (V406 Vul). Photometric observations taken during 2000 and 2008 reveals the presence of the secondary star's ellipsoidal…
Ultra-luminous X-ray pulsars (ULXPs) provide a unique opportunity to study super-Eddington accretion. We present the results of a monitoring campaign of ULXP NGC 7793 P13. Over our four-year monitoring campaign with Swift, XMM-Newton, and…
We report the identification of the cataclysmic variable 1RXSJ062518.2+733433 as an intermediate polar. The orbital period of the system is determined to be 283.0+-2 min from the radial velocity variation of Halpha, measured in an extensive…
We present the first optical photometry of the counterpart to the candidate intermediate polar RX J0153.3+7446. This reveals an optical pulse period of 2333s +/- 5s. Reanalysis of the previously published ROSAT X-ray data reveals that the…
