The first IBIS galactic plane survey has provided a list of high energy emitting objects above 20 keV; these sources have been detected mostly in the crowded region of the Galactic Centre and partly along the Galactic Plane. In order to…

The International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL) is discovering hundreds of new hard X-ray sources, many of which remain unidentified. We report on optical spectroscopy of five such sources for which X-ray observations at…

Early results from the INTEGRAL Core Program, for a sample of eight persistently bright neutron star low mass X-ray binaries in the energy range from 5 keV to 200 keV are presented. It is shown that INTEGRAL efficiently detects sources and…

In a recent paper, Romero et al. (1999) have presented the results of a positional correlation analysis of the low-latitude unidentified gamma-ray sources in the Third EGRET catalog with complete lists of galactic objects like supernova…

We present the most recent results of an optical survey of the position error contours ("error boxes") of unidentified high energy gamma-ray sources.

We continue the study begun in Karasev et al. (2018) and present the results of our optical identifications of four hard X-ray sources from the INTEGRAL sky surveys. Having first improved the positions of these objects in the sky with the…

(Abridged) Since its launch in October 2002, the INTEGRAL satellite has revolutionized our knowledge of the hard X-ray sky thanks to its unprecedented imaging capabilities and source detection positional accuracy above 20 keV. Nevertheless,…

We have observed the Orion Molecular Clouds 2 and 3 (OMC-2 and OMC-3) with the Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO). The northern part of OMC-3 is found to be particularly rich in new X-ray features; four hard X-ray sources are located in and…

Although the majority of gamma-ray sources still remain unidentified, we have various kinds of information to characterize the observational properties of unidentified EGRET sources. Despite astronomical properties like locations of…
