    The open cluster King 1 in the second quadrant
    We analyse the poorly studied open cluster King 1 in the second Galactic quadrant. From wide-field photometry, we have studied the spatial distribution of this...

    The optical + infrared L dwarf spectral sequence of young planetary-mass objects in the Upper Scorpius association
    We present the results of photometric and spectroscopic follow-ups of the lowest mass member candidates in the nearest OB association, Upper Scorpius (∼5-10 Myr...

    The optical behaviour of BL Lacertae at its maximum brightness levels: a blend of geometry and energetics
    In 2021 BL Lacertae underwent an extraordinary activity phase, which was intensively followed by the Whole Earth Blazar Telescope (WEBT) Collaboration. We...

    The optical counterpart of the bright X-ray transient Swift J1745-26
    We present a 30-day monitoring campaign of the optical counterpart of the bright X-ray transient Swift J1745-26, starting only 19 min after the discovery of the...

    The optical morphologies of the 2 Jy sample of radio galaxies: evidence for galaxy interactions
    We present deep Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph South (GMOS-S)/Gemini optical broad-band images for a complete sample of 46 southern 2 Jy radio galaxies at...

    The orbital period of CY UMa
    We present intermediate resolution spectroscopy of the dwarf nova CY UMa in quiescence. From the radial velocities of the Hα emission, we derive an orbital...

    The orbital period of the recurrent nova V2487 Oph revealed
    We present the first reliable determination of the orbital period of the recurrent nova V2487 Oph (Nova Oph 1998). We derived a value of 0.753 ± 0.016 d (18.1 ±...

    The orbital period, black hole mass, and distance to the X-ray transient GRS 1716-249 ( =N Oph 93)
    We present evidence for a 0.278(8) d ( =6.7 h) orbital period in the X-ray transient GRS 1716-249 (=N Oph 93), based on a superhump modulation detected during...

    The orientation of galaxy dark matter haloes around cosmic voids
    Using the Millennium N-body Simulation we explore how the shape and angular momentum of galaxy dark matter haloes surrounding the largest cosmological voids are...
