    The formation of high mass young stellar objects and the importance of their massive protostellar jets

    In contrast with low-mass young stellar objects (LMYSOs), very little is known about high-mass YSOs (HMYSOs). Latest results indicate that HMYSOs might be born...

    1RXS J180408.9-342058: An ultra compact X-ray binary candidate with a transient jet

    Aims: We present a detailed near-infrared/optical/UV study of the transient low-mass X-ray binary 1RXS J180408.9-342058 performed during its 2015 outburst...

    A compact jet at the infrared heart of the prototypical low-luminosity AGN in NGC 1052

    The feeble radiative efficiency characteristic of Low-Luminosity Active Galactic Nuclei (LLAGNs) is ascribed to a sub-Eddington accretion rate, typically at log...

    A deep survey of short GRB host galaxies over z 0-2: implications for offsets, redshifts, and environments

    A significant fraction (30 per cent) of well-localized short gamma-ray bursts (sGRBs) lack a coincident host galaxy. This leads to two main scenarios: (i) that...

    A lower limit to the accretion disc radius in the low-luminosity AGNNGC 1052 derived from high-angular resolution data

    We investigate the central sub-arcsec region of the low-luminosity active galactic nucleusNGC 1052, using a high-angular resolution data set that covers 10...

    A multiwavelength look into the common evolution of luminous quasars and their host-galaxies

    This talk will be dedicated to luminous (LBol~1E47 erg/s),high-redshift quasars, which are ideal targets to investigate (i) feedbackfrom SMBHs, and (ii) the...

    A Multiwavelength Study of GRS 1716-249 in Outburst: Constraints on Its System Parameters

    We present a detailed study of the evolution of the Galactic black hole transient GRS 1716-249 during its 2016-2017 outburst at optical (Las Cumbres Observatory...

    A new technique for decoupling the host and nuclear spectra of type I AGNs using integral field spectroscopy

    We have developed a new technique to decouple the spectra of the host and the nucleus of type I AGNs using integral field spectroscopy (IFS) data. The technique...

    A significant hardening and rising shape detected in the MeV/GeV νFν spectrum from the recently discovered very-high-energy blazar S4 0954+65 during the bright optical flare in 2015 February

    We report on Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) and multi-wavelength results on the recently discovered very-high-energy (VHE, E > 100 GeV) blazar S4 0954+65 (z =...
