An analysis of the spatial fluctuations in 15 deep ASCA SIS0 images has been conducted in order to probe the 2-10 keV X-ray source counts down to a flux limit 2E-14 erg/cm2/s. Special care has been taken in modelling the fluctuations in…

We present observations of a region of the Galactic plane taken during the Early Science Program of the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP). In this context, we observed the SCORPIO field at 912 MHz with an uncompleted…

We present a catalogue of compact sources detected in the SARAO MeerKAT 1.3 GHz Galactic Plane Survey (SMGPS). We extract 510599 compact sources, with areas less than five 8" beams, from the survey maps covering the regions $252\deg< l <…

We aim to reveal environmental dependence of infrared luminosity functions (IR LFs) of galaxies at z~0.8 using the AKARI satellite. We construct restframe 8um IR LFs in the cluster region RXJ1716.4+6708 at z=0.81, and compare them with a…

We present the first results of mid-infrared (MIR) ultra-deep observations towards the lensing cluster Abell 2390 using the ISOCAM infrared camera on-board ESA's Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) satellite. They reveal a large number of…

During the period Aug.23-Sept.24 2003, the INTEGRAL observatory performed an ultra deep survey of the Galactic Center region with a record sensitivity at energies higher than 20 keV. We have analized images of the Galactic Center region…

Source counts -- the number density of sources as a function of flux density -- represent one of the fundamental metrics in observational cosmology due to their straightforward and simple nature. It is an important tool that provides…

We present a catalog of compact sources derived from the QUaD Galactic Plane Survey. The survey covers ~800 square degrees of the inner galaxy (|b|<4 degrees) in Stokes I, Q and U parameters at 100 and 150 GHz, with angular resolution 5 and…

By tracing the distribution of cool dust in the extended envelopes of post-AGB stars and (proto)-planetary nebulae ((P)PNe) we aim to recover, or constrain, the mass loss history experienced by these stars in their recent past. The…
