We analysed data from five XMM-Newton observations of GX 13+1 to investigate the variability of the photo-ionised absorber present in this source. We fitted EPIC and RGS spectra obtained from the "least-variable" intervals with a model…
We present a long (100 ks) Suzaku observation of one of the X-ray brightest AGN, MCG+8-11-11. These data were complemented with the 54-month Swift BAT spectrum, allowing us to perform a broad-band fit in the 0.6-150 keV range. The fits…
We report the discovery of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mkn 335 in an extremely low X-ray state. A comparison of Swift observations obtained in May and June/July 2007 with all previous X-ray observations between 1971 to 2006 show the…
We report two epochs of Chandra-ACIS X-ray imaging spectroscopy of the nearby bright Type IIn supernova SN 2010jl, taken around 2 months and then a year after the explosion. The majority of the X-ray emission in both the spectra is…
Tracking the spectral evolution of transiently accreting neutron stars between outburst and quiescence probes relatively poorly understood accretion regimes. Such studies are challenging because they require frequent monitoring of sources…
IGR J16318-4848 is an X-ray binary with the highest known line of sight absorption column density among all known X-ray binary systems in our galaxy. In order to investigate the reason behind such a large absorption column, we looked at the…
In recent work with high-resolution grating spectrometers (RGS) aboard XMM-Newton Pinto et al. (2016) have discovered that two bright and archetypal ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) have strong relativistic winds in agreement with…
We present the results from a detailed analysis of the 2007 Swift monitoring campaign of the quasar PG1211+143. We constructed broad-band, optical/UV/X-ray spectral energy distributions over three X-ray flux intervals. We fitted them with a…
Using a month-long X-ray lightcurve from ${\it RXTE}$/PCA and 1.5 month long UV continuum lightcurves from ${\it IUE}$ spectra in 1220$-$1970 $\r{A}$, we performed a detailed time-lag study of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 7469. Our…
We report on results from a one-year soft X-ray observing campaign of the ultraluminous X-ray pulsar NGC 300 ULX-1 by the Neutron star Interior Composition Explorer (NICER) during 2018--2019. Our analysis also made use of data from…
We present the first intensive continuum reverberation mapping study of the high accretion rate Seyfert galaxy Mrk 110. The source was monitored almost daily for more than 200 days with the Swift X-ray and UV/optical telescopes, supported…
An analysis of survey and pointed ROSAT PSPC observations of the Seyfert 1.8 galaxy NGC 3786 has revealed interesting spectral and temporal behaviour. The spectrum is found to show clear signs of excess absorption, and there is evidence…
Galaxy merging is widely accepted to be a key driving factor in galaxy formation and evolution, while the feedback from AGN is thought to regulate the BH-bulge coevolution and the star formation process. In this context, we focused on…
NGC 4051 is a nearby (16.7 Mpc), Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxy (NLS1), which has a low black hole mass of $10^6$ M$_{\odot}$. It is also known for its rapid X-ray variability, on timescales of kilo-seconds and has a complex, multi component…
On 9-11 May 1998, the highly-variable, low luminosity Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC4051 was observed in an unusual low flux state by BeppoSAX (Guainazzi et al. 1998) RXTE and EUVE. We present fits of the 4-15 keV RXTE spectrum and BeppoSAX MECS…
Chandra obtained two High Energy Transmission Grating (HETG) spectra of the stellar-mass black hole GRO J1655-40 during its 2005 outburst, revealing a rich and complex disk wind. Soon after its launch, the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory…
PG1535+547 is a bright NLS1 galaxy, whose high energy emission shows strong variability in shape and flux. ROSAT data classified it as soft X-ray weak QSO (objects whose X-ray-to-optical flux ratio is smaller than in typical QSO): their…
We report on two Chandra observations, and a simultaneous Hubble Space Telescope ultraviolet observation, of the dwarf Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4395. Each Chandra observation had a duration of ~30 ks, with a separation of ~50 ks. The spectrum…
Holmberg IX X-1 is a well-known ultraluminous X-ray source with an X-ray luminosity of ~1e40 erg/s. The source has been monitored by the X-ray Telescope of Swift regularly. Since 2009 April, the source has been in an extended low luminosity…
An extended XMM-Newton observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 in 2009 detected a photo-ionized outflow with a complex absorption line velocity structure and a broad correlation of velocity with ionization parameter, shown in Pounds et…
