We present a re-analysis of the outburst radial velocity data for X-ray Nova Scorpii 1994. Using a model based on X-ray heating of the secondary star, we...

PublicationThe powerful jet of an off-nuclear intermediate-mass black hole in the spiral galaxy NGC 2276
Jet ejection by accreting black holes is a mass invariant mechanism unifying stellar and supermassive black holes (SMBHs) that should also apply for...

PublicationThe pre-main sequence spectroscopic binary UZ Tau East: Improved orbital parameters and accretion phase dependence
We present radial-velocity measurements obtained using high- and intermediate-resolution spectroscopic observations of the classical T Tauri star UZ Tau East...

PublicationThe puzzling case of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934: flaring optical emission during quiescence
We present an optical (gri) study during quiescence of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar IGR J00291+5934 performed with the 10.4 m Gran Telescopio Canarias...

PublicationThe puzzling orbital period evolution of the LMXB AX J1745.6-2901
The orbital period evolution of X-ray binaries provides fundamental clues to understanding mechanisms of angular momentum transfer and loss in these systems. We...

PublicationThe quiescent spectral energy distribution of V404 Cyg
We present a multiwavelength study of the black hole X-ray binary V404 Cyg in quiescence, focusing upon the spectral energy distribution (SED). Radio, optical...

PublicationThe Return of the Bursts: Thermonuclear Flashes from Circinus X-1
We report the detection of 15 X-ray bursts with RXTE and Swift observations of the peculiar X-ray binary Circinus X-1 (Cir X-1) during its 2010 May X-ray re...

PublicationThe return of the spin period in DW Cnc and evidence of new high state outbursts
DW Cnc is an intermediate polar which has previously been observed in both high and low states. Observations of the high state of DW Cnc have previously...

PublicationThe Role of the Accretion Disk, Dust, and Jets in the IR Emission of Low-luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei
We use recent high-resolution infrared (IR; 1-20 μm) photometry to examine the origin of the IR emission in low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGN). The...
