We carried out deep optical observations of the middle-aged $\gamma$-ray pulsar PSR J1741-2054 with the Very Large Telescope (VLT). We identified two objects, of magnitudes $m_v=23.10\pm0.05$ and $m_v=25.32\pm0.08$, at positions consistent…
We report the first X-ray detection of the radio pulsar PSR B1757-24 using the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We detect point-source emission at the pulsar position plus a faint tail extending nearly 20" east of the pulsar, in the same…
We present NuSTAR observations of the powerful radio galaxy Cygnus A, focusing on the central absorbed active galactic nucleus (AGN). Cygnus A is embedded in a cool-core galaxy cluster, and hence we also examine archival XMM-Newton data to…
We report on the detection of PSR 1706-44 in two ROSAT-PSPC observations. The recorded source counts are unpulsed with a $2\sigma$ pulsed fraction upper limit of 18%. Spectral analysis did not distinguish between black-body and power law…
We present a high-resolution radio study of the supernova remnant (SNR) G11.2-0.3 using archival VLA data. Spectral tomography is performed to determine the properties of this composite-type SNR's individual components, which have only…
We present a spectral analysis of three simultaneous NuSTAR and Swift/XRT observations of the transient Be-neutron star binary KS 1947+300 taken during its outburst in 2013/2014. These broad-band observations were supported by Swift/XRT…
We report on the results of a NuSTAR observation of the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transient pulsar IGRJ11215-5952 during the peak of its outburst in June 2017. IGRJ11215-5952 is the only SFXT undergoing strictly periodic outbursts, every 165…
We report on an X-ray observation of the 166 Myr old radio pulsar J0108-1431 with XMM-Newton. The X-ray spectrum can be described by a power-law model with a relatively steep photon index Gamma~3 or by a combination of thermal and…
We present spectral analysis of the Crab Nebula obtained with the {\it Chandra} X-ray observatory. The X-ray spectrum is characterized by a power-law whose index varies across the nebula. The variation can be discussed in terms of the…
The Dragonfly Nebula (G75.2$+$0.1) powered by the young pulsar J2021$+$3651 is a rare pulsar wind nebula (PWN) that shows double tori and polar jets enclosed by a bow-shock structure in X-rays. We present new radio observations of this…
We report the discovery of a diffuse radio emission around PSR J0855--4644 using an upgraded GMRT (uGMRT) observation at 1.35 GHz. The radio emission is spatially coincident with the diffuse X-ray pulsar wind nebula (PWN) seen with XMM but…
We have presented NuSTAR and Swift observations of the newly discovered Be/X-ray pulsar eRASSU J052914.9-662446. This is the first detailed study of the temporal and spectral properties of the pulsar using 2020 observations. A coherent…
We report the discovery of a prominent nonthermal X-ray feature located near the Galactic center that we identify as an energetic pulsar wind nebula. This feature, G359.95-0.04, lies 1 lyr north of Sgr A* (in projection), is comet-like in…
We report new Chandra X-ray observations of the shell supernova remnant (SNR) Kes 75 (G29.7-0.3) containing a pulsar and pulsar-wind nebula (PWN). Expansion of the PWN is apparent across the four epochs, 2000, 2006, 2009, and 2016. We find…
Located at the center of the Perseus cluster, 3C 84 is an extremely bright and nearby radio galaxy. Because of the strong diffuse thermal emission from the cluster in X-rays, the detailed properties and the origin of a power-law component…
We report the discovery of a partial ~2deg. diameter non-thermal radio shell coincident with Taz, the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) in the error box of the apparently variable gamma-ray source 3EG J1809-2328. We propose that this radio shell is…
We utilize recent NuSTAR observations (co-added depth $\approx55$-120 ks) of PG $1001+054$, PG $1254+047$, and PHL 1811 to constrain their hard X-ray ($\gtrsim5$ keV) weakness and spectral shapes, and thus to investigate the nature of their…
We present the analysis of the archival Suzaku and Swift X-ray observations of the young $\gamma$-ray pulsar J1932+1916 field. The data revealed a point-like object at the $\gamma$-ray position of the pulsar and diffuse X-ray emission…
We present new observational results obtained for the Galactic non-thermal radio source G328.4+0.2 to determine both if this source is a pulsar wind nebula or supernova remnant, and in either case, the physical properties of this source.…
Pulsar wind nebula (PWN) Boomerang and the associated supernova remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7 are among candidates for the ultra-high-energy (UHE) gamma-ray counterparts published by LHAASO. Although the centroid of the extended source, LHAASO…
