We present a detailed spectroscopic investigation, spanning four winters, of the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star IRAS 02091+6333. Zijlstra & Weinberger (cite...
Optical spectroscopy of isolated planetary mass objects in the σ Orionis cluster
We have obtained low resolution optical spectra of 15 isolated planetary mass objects (IPMOs) in the sigma Orionis cluster, and derived spectral types by...
Optical spectroscopy of microquasar candidates at low Galactic latitudes
We report optical spectroscopic observations of a sample of 6 low-galactic latitude microquasar candidates selected by cross-identification of X-ray and radio...
Optical spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary GX9+9
Phase-resolved medium-resolution VLT spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary GX9+9 has revealed narrow CIII emission lines that move in phase relative to our...
Optical spectroscopy of V1123 Tauri and its visual companion
We present long-slit intermediate resolution spectroscopy of the visual binary V1123. We confirm that component A is a W UMa eclipsing star with spectral type...
Optical studies of the X-ray transient XTE J2123-058 - I. Photometry
We present optical photometry of the X-ray transient XTE J2123-058, obtained in 1998 July-October. The light curves are strongly modulated on the 5.95-h orbital...
Optical studies of the X-ray transient XTE J2123-058 - II. Phase-resolved spectroscopy
We present time-resolved spectroscopy of the soft X-ray transient XTEJ2123-058 in outburst. A useful spectral coverage of 3700-6700Å was achieved spanning two...
Optical studies of V404 Cyg, the X-ray transient GS2023 + 338. I - The 1989 outburst and decline
The results of optical spectroscopy and photometry of V404Cyg, the optical counterpart of the recently discovered X-ray transient GS2023 + 338, are presented...
