We present timing and spectral analysis of a sample of seven hard X-ray selected Cataclysmic Variable candidates based on simultaneous X-ray and optical observations collected with XMM-Newton , complemented with Swift/BAT and INTEGRAL/IBIS…
Dual/binary Supermassive Black Hole (SMBH) systems are the inevitable consequence of the current Lambda Cold Dark Matter cosmological paradigm. In this context, we discuss here the properties of MCG+11-11-032, a local (z=0.0362) Seyfert 2…
We present the results of a multi-epoch and multi-instrument study of the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy MCG-05-23-16 aiming at the determination of its spin. We have analyzed high quality X-ray data of MCG-05-23-16…
We explore the accretion properties of the black hole X-ray binary \j1550\ during its outbursts in 1998/99 and 2000. We model the disk, corona, and reflection components of X-ray spectra taken with the {\it Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer}…
We present the results of our observations of the early stages of the 2012--2013 outburst of the transient black hole X-ray binary (BHXRB), Swift J1745$-$26, with the VLA, SMA, and JCMT (SCUBA--2). Our data mark the first multiple-band mm &…
We report on the NuSTAR observations of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Swift J174805.3-244637 (hereafter Swift~J17480) and the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR~J17511-3057 performed on March 4, 2023, and April 8, 2015,…
We present a systematic analysis of the complete set of observations of the black hole (BH) binary XTE J1550-564 obtained by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. We study the fast time variability properties of the source and determine the spin…
The bright soft X-ray transient Nova Muscae 1991 was intensively observed during its entire 8-month outburst using the Large Area Counter (LAC) onboard the Ginga satellite. Recently, we obtained accurate estimates of the mass of the black…
We observed the Galactic black hole candidate XTE J1650-500 early in its Fall, 2001 outburst with the XMM-Newton European Photon Imaging pn Camera (EPIC-pn). The observed spectrum is consistent with the source having been in the "very high"…
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…
The recently discovered bright transient black hole candidate Swift J1727.8-1613 is studied in a broad energy range ($0.5-79$ keV) using combined NICER and NuSTAR data on 29 August 2023. A promonient type-C Quasi-Periodic Oscillation (QPO)…
The transient Galactic black hole candidate Swift\,J1727.8-1613 went through an outburst for the very first time in August 2023 and lasted for almost 6 months. We study the timing and spectral properties of this source using publicly…
We conducted time-resolved optical spectroscopy and/or photometry of ten cataclysmic binaries that were discovered in hard X-ray surveys, with the goal of measuring their orbital periods and searching for evidence that they are magnetic.…
Local low metallicity galaxies with signatures of possible accretion activity are ideal laboratories in which to search for the lowest mass black holes and study their impact on the host galaxy. Here we present the first JWST NIRSpec IFS…
We perform broadband spectral and timing studies of the Galactic low-mass black hole candidate AT2019wey using quasi-simultaneous NICER, Swift, and NuSTAR observations obtained in 2022. The long-term MAXI light curve, along with the…
Swift J1753.5-0127 (J1753) is a candidate black hole low-mass X-ray binary (BH-LMXB) that was discovered in outburst in May 2005. It remained in outburst for $\sim12$ years, exhibiting a wide range of variability on various timescales,…
The accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar Swift J1756.9$-$2508 went into outburst in April 2018 and June 2019, 8.7 yr after the previous activity period. We investigated the temporal, timing and spectral properties of these two outbursts using…
We present new broadband X-ray observations of the type-I Seyfert galaxy IRAS 09149-6206, taken in 2018 with $XMM$-$Newton$, $NuSTAR$ and $Swift$. The source is highly complex, showing a classic 'warm' X-ray absorber, additional absorption…
We present optical monitoring of the neutron star low-mass X-ray binary Swift J1858.6-0814 during its 2018-2020 outburst and subsequent quiescence. We find that there was strong optical variability present throughout the entire outburst…
We present a spectral analysis of a black hole X-ray binary XTE J2012+381 during its 2022 outburst, using data from NICER and AstroSat. Combining data from NICER, LAXPC20, and SXT, we extract energy spectra covering the 0.7-10.0 keV range.…
