We present follow-up observations of the serendipitously discovered 7-s X-ray pulsar AX J1845-0258, which displays characteristics similar to those observed in the anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs). We find a dramatic reduction in its 3-10 keV…
We present narrow band AAO/UKST HAlpha images and medium and low resolution optical spectra of a nebula shell putatively associated with the Wolf-Rayet star WR 60. We also present the first identification of this shell in the radio regime…
We report a discovery of diffuse X-ray emission around the supernova remnant (SNR) G106.3+2.7, which is associated with VER J2227+608 and HAWC J2227+610 and is known as a candidate for a PeV cosmic ray accelerator (PeVatron). We analyze…
We report deep near-infrared and optical observations of the X-ray point source in the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant, CXO J232327.9+584842. We have identified a J=21.4 +/- 0.3 mag and Ks=20.5 +/- 0.3 mag source within the 1-sigma error…
We present evidence supporting a SNR origin for the radio source G337.2+0.1, which was discovered along the line of sight to the Norma spiral arm in the MOST 843-MHz radio survey. The radio source is spatially superposed to the unidentified…
We report the detection of high-energy $\gamma$-ray emission in the vicinity of G172.8+1.5, which is debated as a Supernova remnant (SNR) or an ionized hydrogen (H$_{\rm{II}}$) region. Using 16-yr Pass 8 data from Fermi Large Area Telescope…
During the $BeppoSAX$ survey of the Galactic Center region, we have discovered X-ray emission from the central region of the supernova remnant G0.9+0.1. The high interstellar absorption (N_H about 3 times 10^{23} cm^-2) is consistent with a…
We report the discovery of high-energy $\gamma$-ray emission in the vicinity of G213.0-0.6, which is debated as a supernova remnant (SNR) or an ionized hydrogen (H$_{\rm{II}}$) region. Using 16-yr Pass 8 data from Fermi Large Area Telescope…
A Chandra observation of the isolated hard X-ray source XMMU J061804.3+222732, located in the region of apparent interaction of the supernova remnant IC 443 with a molecular cloud, resolved the complex structure of the source in a few…
An unusual X-ray source, RXJ1856.5-3754, has recently been discovered with ROSAT: its spectrum resembles that of supersoft sources, but the very high X-ray to optical flux ratio excludes the presence of a companion star, pointing to an…
A significant fraction of ultraluminous X-ray sources appear to be embedded in observable ionized nebulae that take the form of large, several 100 pc diameter interstellar bubbles. Here we review optical observations of these bubbles, their…
We present \xmm observations of hard X-ray emission from the field of IC443, a supernova remnant interacting with a molecular cloud. The hard emission from the field is dominated by 12 isolated sources having 2--10 keV flux $\ga 10^{-14}$…
We report the discovery of pulsed X-ray emission from the compact object CXOU J112439.1-591620 within the supernova remnant (SNR) G292.0+1.8 using the High Resolution Camera on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The X-ray period (P=0.13530915…
We present a spectral analysis of the Northern and Southwestern rim of the RCW86 X-ray shell, pointing out the remarkable differences between these two parts of the same object. In the North, a single temperature Non Equilibrium of…
Wide field CCD observations of three, less known, supernova remnants. Filamentary and diffuse emission is discovered from the supernova remnant G67.7+1.8. Emission can also be seen in the ROSAT All Sky Survey data which indicate an extended…
We report here on the first detection at X-ray wavelengths of the Supernova Remnant (SNR) G337.8-0.1, carried out with the XMM-Newton Observatory. Using the X-ray observations, we studied the X-ray morphology of the remnant at different…
Using the Chandra X-ray Observatory we have discovered a diffuse, center-filled region of hard X-ray emission within the young, oxygen-rich supernova remnant (SNR) G292.0+1.8. Near the peak of this diffuse emission lies a point-like source…
MUSE-based emission-line maps of the spiral galaxy NGC 4030 reveal the existence of unresolved sources with forbidden line emission enhanced with respect to those seen in its own HII regions. This study reports our efforts to detect and…
We discovered a middle-aged supernova remnant (SNR) in the vicinity of G69.7+1.0 using the ASCA satellite. G69.7+1.0 was identified in the 2.7 GHz survey and classified as a shell-type SNR with a diameter of 16 arcmin. During the ROSAT…
