    On the mass of the compact object in GRO J0422+32
    We report the detection of the secondary star spectrum in the hard X-ray transient GRO J0422+32 during its lowest quiescent state. From the amplitude of the...

    On the mass of the neutron star in Cyg X-2
    We present new high-resolution spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Cyg X-2, which enables us to refine the orbital solution and rotational broadening of...

    On the masses and evolutionary status of the black hole binary GX 339-4: a twin system of XTE J1550-564?
    We apply the K-correction to the black hole low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) GX 339-4 which implies MX >= 6Msolar by only assuming that the companion is more...

    On the morphology of dust lanes in galactic bars
    The aim of our study is to use dynamical simulations to explore the influence of two important dynamical bar parameters, bar strength and bar pattern speed on...

    On the multiplicity of ALMA Compact Array counterparts of far-infrared bright quasars
    We present ALMA Atacama Compact Array (ACA) 870 μm continuum maps of 28 infrared-bright SDSS quasars with Herschel/SPIRE detections at redshifts 2-4, the...

    On the nature of Hα emitters at z ˜ 2 from the HiZELS survey: physical properties, Lyα escape fraction and main sequence
    We present a detailed multiwavelength study (from rest-frame ultraviolet to far-infrared) of narrow-band selected, star-forming (SF) Hα emitters (HAEs) at z ˜ 2...

    On the nature of the most obscured C-rich AGB stars in the Magellanic Clouds
    The stars in the Magellanic Clouds with the largest degree of obscuration are used to probe the highly uncertain physics of stars in the asymptotic giant branch...

    On the nature of the red, 2MASS-selected AGN in the local Universe I: an optical spectroscopic study
    We present optical spectra for a representative sample of 27 nearby (z 0.2) Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS)-selected active galactic nuclei (AGN) with red...

    On the nitrogen abundance of fast, low-ionization emission regions: the outer knots of the planetary nebula NGC 7009
    We have constructed a 3D photoionization model of a planetary nebula (PN) similar in structure to NGC 7009 with its outer pair of knots (also known as FLIERs -...
