We present the results of our study of the luminous (L_{X} ~ 10^{39} erg/s) X-ray binary CXOU J121538.2+361921 in NGC 4214, the high mass X-ray binary with the shortest known orbital period. Using Chandra data, we confirm the ~13,000 s (3.6…

Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) All Sky Monitor observations of the transient Be star X-ray source X0726-260 suggest a 34.5 day period. This is apparently confirmed by a serendipitous RXTE Proportional Counter Array (PCA) slew detection…

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…

RX J0720.4-3125 has recently been identified as a pulsating soft X-ray source in the ROSAT all-sky survey with a period of 8.391 s. Its spectrum is well characterized by a black-body with a temperature of $8 \times 10^5$ K. We propose that…

Millisecond X-ray pulsars consist of a rapidly-spinning neutron star accreting from a low-mass stellar companion, and are the long-sought evolutionary progenitors of millisecond radio pulsars, as well as promising candidate sources for…

The M31 X-ray source RX J0042.3+4115 was originally identified as a black hole binary because it displayed characteristic low state variability at conspicuously high luminosities; unfortunately, this variability was later found to be…

We report the detection of orbital modulation, a model solution, and X-ray properties of a newly discovered contact binary, 2MASS J11201034$-$2201340. We serendipitously found this X-ray point source outside the error ellipse when searching…

We report on the discovery of X-ray pulsations from the Be/X-ray system LS 992/RX J0812.4-3114 during an RXTE observation. From a timing analysis of the source we obtained a barycentric pulse period of 31.8851 \pm 0.0004 s. The pulse…

X 1908+075 is an optically unidentified and highly absorbed X-ray source that appears in early surveys such as Uhuru, OSO-7, Ariel V, HEAO-1, and the EXOSAT Galactic Plane Survey. These surveys measured a source intensity in the range of…

We report on ground-based optical observations of ten cataclysmic binaries that were discovered through their X-ray emission. Time-resolved radial velocity spectroscopy yields unambiguous orbital periods for eight objects and ambiguous…

Photometric and spectroscopic results for the contact binary GSC 01387-00475 (ASAS 083128+1953.1) are presented. The existence of this binary with the orbital period of P = 0.2178 d strengthens the argument that the cut-off of the period…

We report here discovery of a 3.32 day orbital period in the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient (SFXT) source IGR J16479-4514. Using the long term light curve of this source obtained with Swift-BAT in the energy range of 15-50 keV, we have…

We present the results of 50 hours time-resolved R-band photometry of the ROSAT all-sky survey source 1RXSJ062518.2+733433. The source was identified by Wei et al. (1999) as a cataclysmic variable. Our photometry, performed in 10 nights…

We present X-ray and infrared observations of the X-ray source CXOGC J174536.1-285638. Previous observations suggest that this source may be an accreting binary with a high-mass donor (HMXB) or a colliding wind binary (CWB). Based on the…

A Be/X-ray binary system known as RX J0440.9+4431 (or LS V +44 17) is a potential member of the uncommon gamma-ray binary class. With an orbital period of 150 days, this system consists of a neutron star and a Be star companion. The MAXI…

We report the identification of a very low mass new binary system 2MASS J10274572+0629104, based on Kepler K2 photometry and Gaia DR2 astrometry. The K2 light curve is consistent with a beat pattern of two periodic signals, and using…

RXJ 0501.7-0359 is a new V ~ 17 mag eclipsing polar discovered during the ROSAT all-sky survey (RASS). Extensive follow-up observations at X-ray (pointed ROSAT PSPC and HRI observations) and optical (time-resolved photometry and…

A detailed analysis of simultaneous photometric and spectroscopic observations of the optical counterpart of the LMC "supersoft" X-ray source RX J0513.9-6951 (identified with HV 5682) is presented. The spectrum is dominated by He II…

The neutron star low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) AX J1745.6-2901 was detected an anomalously fast decrease of orbital period. The decreasing rate of orbital period exceeds the contribution of all processes extracting angular momentum from the…

1RXS J201607.0251645 is identified to be an eclipsing binary for the first time. We present the preliminary observations in V band with the 0.6-m telescope for three years and the extensive observations in V and R band with the 0.8-m…
