Two stellar-mass black holes in the globular cluster M22
Published 2012“…Here we report the presence of two flat-spectrum radio sources in the Milky Way globular cluster M22, and we argue that these objects are black holes of stellar mass (each ~10–20 times more massive than the Sun) that are accreting matter. …”

The fading of two transient ultraluminous x-ray sources to below the stellar mass Eddington limit
Published 2013“…We utilize quantile analyses to demonstrate that the spectra are generally soft, and that in one observation the spectrum of ULX2 is inconsistent with a canonical hard state at >95% confidence. …”

SMSS J130522.47-293113.0: A high-latitude stellar X-ray source with pc-scale outflow relics?
Published 2018“…We report the discovery of an unusual stellar system SMSS J130522.47-293113.0. The optical spectrum is dominated by a blue continuum together with emission lines of hydrogen, neutral, and ionized helium, and the NIII, CIII blend at ~4640-4650 Å. …”

SDSS-IV MaNGA: bulge–disc decomposition of IFU data cubes (BUDDI)
Published 2017“…The benefit of this technique over traditional multiwaveband fits is that the stellar populations of each component can be constrained using knowledge over the whole image and spectrum available. …”

The Cosmic Chemical Evolution Histories of Spiral Galaxies
Published 2023“…By making use of software which allows the integrated spectrum of a galaxy to be decomposed into stellar population spectra of single ages and stellar metallicities, we are able to obtain spatially resolved measures of the dust attenuation affecting the stellar populations of the spirals. …”

MeerKAT discovery of radio emission from the Vela X-1 bow shock
Published 2022“…Vela X-1 is a runaway X-ray binary system hosting a massive donor star, whose strong stellar wind creates a bow shock as it interacts with the interstellar medium (ISM). …”

The slim-disk state of the ultraluminous X-ray source in M83
Published 2015“…From its broadened disk-like spectral shape at that luminosity, and from the fitted inner-disk radius and temperature, we argue that the accreting object is an ordinary stellar-mass BH with M ~ 10-20 M ☉. We suggest that in the 2010 and 2011 Chandra observations, the source was seen at a higher accretion rate, resulting in a power-law-dominated spectrum with a soft excess at large radii.…”

A Radio-selected Black Hole X-Ray Binary Candidate in the Milky Way Globular Cluster M62
Published 2013“…M62-VLA1 is a faint source with a flux density of 18.7 ± 1.9 μJy at 6.2 GHz and a flat radio spectrum (α = –0.24 ± 0.42, for S ν = να). M62 is the second Milky Way cluster with a candidate stellar-mass black hole; unlike the two candidate black holes previously found in the cluster M22, M62-VLA1 is associated with a Chandra X-ray source, supporting its identification as a black hole X-ray binary. …”
