    A 6.5-day periodicity in the recurrent nova V404 Cygni implying the presence of a black hole
    Two years after its outburst in 1989, the William Herschel Telescope has been used to find absorption features in V404 Cyg characteristic of a late G or early K...

    A feasibility study on the photometric detection of quiescent black hole X-ray binaries
    We investigate the feasibility of detecting quiescent black hole X-ray binaries using optical photometric techniques. To test this, we employ a combination of r...

    A FWHM–K2 Correlation in Black Hole Transients
    We compare {{{H}}}α emission profiles of 12 dynamically confirmed black holes (BHs) and 2 neutron star X-ray transients (SXTs) in quiescence with those of a...

    A remarkable recurrent nova in M31: Discovery and optical/UV observations of the predicted 2014 eruption
    The Andromeda Galaxy recurrent nova M31N 2008-12a had been caught in eruption eight times. The inter-eruption period of M31N 2008-12a is ~1 yr, making it the...
