Description
We recently discovered an unresolved radio source coincident with the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) IC 342 X-1. The radio emission and hard X-ray spectrum of the source suggest that it is a compact object accreting in the X-ray hard/radio loud state. This enables use of the fundamental plane relation, found valid for stellar to supermassive accreting black holes, to constrain the compact object mass to be near 104 solar masses. IC 342 X-1 has a redder optical spectrum than other ULXs and the optical emission may be dominated by a late-type supergiant companion star. We discuss radio, X-ray, and optical observations of IC 342 X-1 and their interpretation.

    Application of Bayesian Inference to disentangle CMB foregrounds
    Both Galactic dust emission and Cosmic infrared background anisotropies (CIB) act as a dominant foreground contaminant for the measurements of the CMB anisotropies (intensity and polarization) at the frequency range above 217 GHz. The Galactic dust and CIB share a similar form of spectral energy distribution, which makes it harder to disentangle

    Constraining stellar and orbital co-evolution through ensemble seismology of solar-like oscillators in binary systems
    The evolution of stars and their hosting binary systems is a highly interactive process and cannot be investigated in a segregated manner. Due to the constraints drawn by stellar binarity, oscillating red-giant stars in binary systems represent a unique opportunity to study the details of the structure and evolution of stars in the advanced phases

    Triple-Double Radio Galaxies: Clues for understanding recurrent AGN activity
    Using LOFAR Two-metre Sky Survey (LoTSS), we discovered three cycles of episodic jet activity (J1225+4011, Chavan et al. 2023, MNRAS) in a giant radio galaxy, which is an extremely rare class of restarted Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), making it only fourth of its kind. It is also called 'Triple-Double Radio Galaxy' (TDRG). J1225+4011 extends up to
