We have identified a new intermediate polar, HS 0943+1404, as part of our ongoing search for cataclysmic variables in the Hamburg Quasar Survey. The orbital and...

We present a spectrophotometric study of short-term optical variability in the quiescent black hole X-ray transient V404 Cyg. This includes two nights of high...

Swift J1357.2−0933 is a transient low-mass X-ray binary hosting a stellar-mass black hole. The source exhibits optical dips and very broad emission lines during...

Millisecond radio pulsars are neutron stars that have been spun up by the transfer of angular momentum during the low-mass X-ray binary phase. The transition...

We present infrared photometry of the Galactic bulge X-ray binary systems GX 13+1 and GX 17+2 obtained in 1997 July and August using OSIRIS on the 1.8 m Perkins...

We have obtained an H-band infrared light curve of the low-mass X-ray binary transient Nova Muscae 1991. We model the light curve as being due to the tidal...

Using CGS4 on UKIRT, we have obtained the first 2.05-2.45 μm infrared spectra of the Galactic bulge low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) GX1+4 and GX13+1. We report...

Using CGS4 on UKIRT, we have obtained 2.00-2.45 mu m infrared spectra of a number of low-mass X-ray binaries including Sco X-1, Sco X-2 and GX1 3+1. Sco X-1...

We have obtained for the first time 2.10-2.45 μm infrared spectra of the soft-X-ray transient V404 Cygni. We determine a 95 per cent confidence upper limit to...
