We measure the redshift-space power spectrum P(k) for the recently completed IRAS Point Source Catalogue (PSC) redshift survey, which contains 14500 galaxies over 84% of the sky with 60 micron flux >= 0.6 Jansky. Comparison with simulations…

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…

This paper is the second in a series devoted to the hard X-ray (17-60 keV) whole sky survey performed by the INTEGRAL observatory over seven years. Here we present a catalog of detected sources which includes 521 objects, 449 of which…
