IGR~J19149+1036 is a high mass X-ray binary detected by INTEGRAL in 2011 in the hard X-ray domain. We have analyzed the BAT survey data of the first 103 months of the Swift mission detecting this source at a significance level of ~30 standard deviations. The timing analysis on the long term BAT light curve reveals the presence of a strong sinusoidal intensity modulation of 22.25+/- 0.05 d, that we interpret as the orbital period of this binary system. A broad band (0.3-150 keV) spectral analysis was performed combining the BAT spectrum and the XRT spectra from the pointed follow up observations. The spectrum is adequately modeled with an absorbed power law with a high energy cutoff at ~24 keV and an absorption cyclotron feature at ~31 keV. Correcting for the gravitational redshift, the inferred magnetic field at the neutron star surface is B_surf ~ 3.6 x 10^12 gauss.

IGR J18179-1621 is a hard X-ray binary transient discovered recently by INTEGRAL. Here we report on detailed timing and spectral analysis on IGR J18179-1621 in X-rays based on available INTEGRAL and Swift data. From the INTEGRAL analysis, IGR J18179-
1621 is detected with a significance of 21.6 sigma in the 18-40 keV band by ISGRI and 15.3 sigma in the 3-25 keV band by JEM-X, between 2012-02-29 and 2012-03-01. We analyze two quasisimultaneous Swift ToO observations. A clear 11.82 seconds pulsation is detected above the white noise at a confidence level larger than 99.99%. The pulse fraction is estimated as 22+/-8% in 0.2-10 keV. No sign of pulsation is detected by INTEGRAL/ISGRI in the 18-40 keV band. With Swift and INTEGRAL spectra combined in soft and hard X-rays, IGR J18179-1621 could be fitted by an absorbed power law with a high energy cutoff plus a Gaussian absorption line centered at 21.5 keV. An additional absorption intrinsic to the source is found, while the absorption line is evidence for most probably originated from cyclotron resonant scattering and suggests a magnetic field in the emitting region of sim 2.4 times 10^12 Gauss.
We report on the Swift observations of the candidate supergiant fast X-ray transient (SFXT) IGR J16418-4532, which has an orbital period of ~3.7 d. Our monitoring, for a total of ~43 ks, spans over three orbits and represents the most intense and com
plete sampling along the orbital period of the light curve of this source. If one assumes a circular orbit, the X-ray emission from this source can be explained by accretion from a spherically symmetric clumpy wind from a blue supergiant, composed of clumps with different masses, ranging from ~5x10^16 g to 10^21g.
We analysed 13 years of the Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory survey data collected on the High Mass X-ray Binary IGR J18214-1318. Performing the timing analysis we detected a periodic signal of 5.42 d. From the companion star characteristics we derived
an average orbital separation of $sim 41 rm R_{odot}simeq 2 R_{star}$. The spectral type of the companion star (O9) and the tight orbital separation suggest that IGR~J18214-1318 is a wind accreting source with eccentricity lower than 0.17. The intensity profile folded at the orbital period shows a deep minimum compatible with an eclipse of the source by the companion star. In addition, we report on the broad-band 0.6--100 keV spectrum using data from XMM-Newton, NuSTAR, and Swift, applying self-consistent physical models. We find that the spectrum is well fitted either by a pure thermal Comptonization component, or, assuming that the source is a neutron star accreting above the critical regime, by a combined thermal and bulk-motion Comptonization model. In both cases, the presence of a local neutral absorption (possibly related to the thick wind of the companion star) is required.
A small fraction of Tidal Disruption Events (TDE) produce relativistic jets, evidenced by their non-thermal X-ray spectra and transient radio emission. Here we present milliarcsecond-resolution imaging results on TDE J1644+5734 with the European VLBI
Network (EVN). These provide a strong astrometric constraint on the average apparent jet velocity <0.27, that constrains the intrinsic jet velocity for a given viewing angle.
We present here the main characteristics of the BHC IGR J17091-3624 outbursts occurred several times since 1994. Since 2003, the source has been extensively observed by INTEGRAL and Swift. In particular, we report results on the last 2011 outburst th
at showed a rare variability behaviour observed before only in the galactic BH GRS 1915+105 but at a different level of flux. Several hypotheses have been proposed in order to explain this particular behaviour. They are all discussed here, in the light of their apparent contradiction. Finally, based on all available informations, we attempt to give an overall view of this enigmatic source and we speculate on the evolutionary state of the binary system.
