The Magellanic Clouds, the closest star-forming galaxies to the Milky Way, offer an excellent environment to study high-mass X-ray binaries. While the Small Magellanic Cloud has...

We perform a comprehensive search for high-velocity X-ray sources with large X-ray/optical flux ratios (F_X_/F_G_), identifying candidates for interacting black hole or neutron...

The existing radio and X-ray flux correlation for Galactic black holes in the hard and quiescent states relies on a sample which is mostly dominated by two sources (GX 339-4 and...

We predict a thin diffuse component of the Galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE) arising from the scattering of the radiation of bright X-ray binaries (XBs) by the interstellar...

Using the Zwicky Transient Facility, in 2021 February we identified the first known outburst of the black hole X-ray transient XTE_J1859+226 since its discovery in 1999. The...

New photoelectric UBV observations of the X-ray binary A0535+26 at the Crimea station of the Sternberg Astronomical Institute in 1998-2003.

Photoelectric UBVR photometry of Cyg X-1 with 1-m Tian'-Shan' and 48-cm Maidanak Observatory reflectors from October 1995 through November 1996 are presented.

UBV photoelectric observations of A0535+26/V725 Tau are obtained at Crimean Station of SAI in 1980 and 1988-1998.

Photoelectric BVR photometry of SS 433 performed between 1988 and 1990 at Mt. Maidanak is presented.

All observations of Galactic X-ray binaries are affected by absorption from gas and dust in the interstellar medium (ISM) which imprints narrow (line) and broad (photoelectric...

We report on the discovery of 41 new pulsating sources in the data of the Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer, which is sensitive to X-ray photons in the 0.3-10 keV band....

Type II bursts are thought to arise from instabilities in the accretion flow on to a neutron star in an X-ray binary. Despite having been known for almost 40 years, no model can...

Swift J1745-26 is an X-ray binary towards the Galactic Centre that was detected when it went into outburst in 2012 September. This source is thought to be one of a growing...

Galactic black hole binaries produce powerful outflows which emit over almost the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Here, we report the first detection with the Herschel...

We report on a spectral-timing analysis of the black hole X-ray binary candidate MAXI J1543-564 during its 2011 outburst. All 99 pointed observations of this outburst obtained...

We report on the first X-ray images of the Phoenix dwarf galaxy, taken with XMM-Newton in 2009 July. This Local Group dwarf galaxy shares similarities with the Small Magellanic...

We present a comprehensive spectral-timing study of the black hole candidate MAXI J1659-152 during its 2010 outburst. We analysed 65 Rossi X-ray timing explorer (RXTE)...

The goal of the present study was to compile complete list of binaries discovered at non-optical bands: X-ray binaries (XRB) and radio pulsars in binaries. Due to the lack of a...

The results of Cyg X-1 = HDE 226868/V1357 Cyg optical spectral monitoring in 2002-2004 are discussed. Spectral observations were carried out on Peak Terskol Observatory...

Photoelectric (UBVR) observations in 1998-2001 and medium-resolution spectroscopy obtained in the SAO in the same period for the B[e]/X-ray transient CI Cam display cyclic...
