    Black-hole-regulated star formation in massive galaxies
    Supermassive black holes, with masses more than a million times that of the Sun, seem to inhabit the centres of all massive galaxies. Cosmologically motivated...

    BlackCAT: A catalogue of stellar-mass black holes in X-ray transients
    Aims: During the last ~50 years, the population of black hole candidates in X-ray binaries has increased considerably, with 59 Galactic objects being detected...

    Blasts and shocks in the disc of NGC 4258
    We present integral field spectroscopic observations of the central region of the active galaxy NGC 4258 obtained with the fibre IFU system INTEGRAL. We have...

    Blazar spectral variability as explained by a twisted inhomogeneous jet
    Blazars are active galactic nuclei, which are powerful sources of radiation whose central engine is located in the core of the host galaxy. Blazar emission is...

    Blue straggler stars in dwarf spheroidal galaxies
    Blue straggler star (BSS) candidates have been observed in all old dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs), however whether or not they are authentic BSSs or young...
