White dwarf symbiotic binaries are detected in X-rays with luminosities in the range of 10$^{30}$ to 10$^{34}$ lumcgs. Their X-ray emission arises either from the accretion disk boundary layer, from a region where the winds from both…
We examine the accretion properties in a sample of 42 hard (3-60keV) X-ray selected nearby broad-line AGNs. The energy range in the sample is harder than that usually used in the similar previous studies. These AGNs are mainly complied from…
HD49798/RX J0648.0-4418 is a peculiar binary including a hot subdwarf of O spectral type and a compact companion in a 1.55 day orbit. According to the steady spin period derivative $\dot{P}=(-2.17\pm0.01)\times10^{-15} ~\rm s\,s^{-1}$ , the…
Weakly magnetized neutron stars in X-ray binaries show complex phenomenology with several spectral components that can be associated with the accretion disk, boundary and/or spreading layer, a corona, and a wind. Spectroscopic information…
Over the last few years X-ray observations of broad-line radio galaxies (BLRGs) by ASCA, RXTE and BeppoSAX have shown that these objects seem to exhibit weaker X-ray reflection features (such as the iron K\alpha line) than radio-quiet…
We present X-ray properties of optically-selected intermediate-mass (~10^5--10^6 M_Sun) black holes (BHs) in active galaxies (AGNs), using data from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. Our observations are a continuation of a pilot study by…
There has been a growing interest within the astrophysics community in highly magnetized and fast-spinning white dwarfs (WDs), commonly referred to as HMWDs. WDs with these characteristics are quite uncommon and possess magnetic fields…
(Abridged) The diffuse X-ray emission from the thin disk surrounding the Galactic mid-plane (the so-called Galactic ridge) was measured with RXTE PCA in order to determine the spatial extent, spectral nature, and origin of the emission.…
An extreme-mass-ratio system composed of a white dwarf (WD) and a massive black hole can be observed by the low-frequency gravitational wave detectors, such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). When the mass of the black hole…
We present the ultraviolet spectrum of the SW Sex star and nova-like variable DW UMa in an optical low state, as observed with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). The data are well described…
We analysed an X-ray light curve of the dwarf nova RU Peg taken by XMM-Newton with a duration of 46300 s. The power density spectrum has a complicated shape with two red noise and two white noise components, indicating the presence of two…
We describe Chandra High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer observations of RT Cru, the first of a new sub-class of symbiotic stars that appear to contain white dwarfs (WDs) capable of producing hard X-ray emission out to greater than…
The amplitude of the gravitational radiation from an accreting neutron star undergoing polar magnetic burial is calculated. During accretion, the magnetic field of a neutron star is compressed into a narrow belt at the magnetic equator by…
We report the first detailed spectroscopic observations of the recently identified intermediate polar RXJ0028.8+5917/V709 Cas. We discovered that the system shows significant EW ~ (2-4)A broad absorptions, affecting the Balmer lines from…
EX Hya is one of the few double-lined eclipsing cataclysmic variables that allow an accurate measurement of the binary masses. We analyze orbital phase-resolved UVES/ VLT high resolution spectroscopic observations of EX Hya with the aims of…
Models have long predicted that the frequency-averaged masses of white dwarfs in Galactic classical novae are twice as large as those of field white dwarfs. Only a handful of dynamically well-determined nova white dwarf masses have been…
The radiation from accreting X-ray pulsars was expected to be highly polarized, with some estimates for the polarization degree of up to 80%. However, phase-resolved and energy-resolved polarimetry of X-ray pulsars is required in order to…
4U 1700-37 is a wind-fed high-mass X-ray binary hosting a compact object, likely a neutron star, accreting from O6.5 Iaf+ supergiant HD 153919. Coherent pulsations not firmly detected; magnetic field strength remains uncertain. We analyze…
Nova explosions occur on accreting white dwarfs. A thermonuclear runaway in the H-rich accreted envelope causes its ejection without destroying the white dwarf, and an increase in the luminosity by several magnitudes. Accretion is…
We obtain new and precise information on the double white dwarf (DWD) population and on its gravitational-wave-driven merger rate, by combining the constraints on the DWD population from two previous radial-velocity-variation studies: One…
