We report on a 50 ksec XMM-Newton observation of the double pulsar system J0737-3039 performed on April 2004. We present results of the spectral analysis of these data combined with the much shorter Chandra pointing performed on January…

We discuss the methods used to compile a high signal-to-noise dataset representative of both the instrumental and cosmic background signal measured at high galactic latitude by the XMM-Newton EPIC cameras. The characteristics of the EPIC…

The 0.5-150 keV broad-band spectra of a sample of nine bright type 1 Seyfert galaxies are analyzed here. These sources have been discovered/detected by INTEGRAL and subsequently observed with XMM--Newton for the first time with high…

We present three observations (four exposures) of Mkn 421 performed by XMM--Newton in the Autumn of 2002, concentrating on the EPIC--PN camera data. The X-ray spectra were soft and steepening toward high energies. The source was highly…

We report the first hard X-ray observations with NuSTAR of the BL Lac type blazar PKS 2155-304, augmented with soft X-ray data from XMM-Newton and gamma-ray data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope, obtained in April 2013 when the source…

We report on the XMM-Newton observations of the young, 102 ms pulsar PSR B1706-44. We have found that both a blackbody plus power-law and a magnetized atmospheric model plus power-law provide an excellent fit to the EPIC spectra. The two…

We present the results of two XMM-Newton observations of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC 5204 X-1. The EPIC spectra are well-fit by the standard spectral model of a black-hole X-ray binary, comprising a soft multi-colour disc…

The VERITAS collaboration reports the detection of very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission from the high-frequency-peaked BL Lac object 1ES 1218+304 located at a redshift of z=0.182. A gamma-ray signal was detected with high statistical…

We present the analysis and results from a series of XMM-Newton observations of the distant blazar PMN J0525-3343, at a redshift of 4.4. The X-ray spectrum shows a spectral flattening below ~1 keV confirming earlier results from ASCA and…

A multiwavelength campaign on the BL Lac object AO 0235+16 has been organized by the WEBT collaboration during the observing seasons 2003-2004 and 2004-2005. Here we report on the results of the first season, which saw the participation of…

Fermi J1544-0639/ASASSN-17gs/AT2017egv was identified as a gamma-ray/optical transient on May 15, 2017. Subsequent multiwavelength observations suggest that this source may belong to the new class of radio-weak BL Lacs. We studied the X-ray…

We present the data analysis and the X-ray source counts for the first season of XMM-Newton observations in the COSMOS field. The survey covers ~2 deg^2 within the region of sky bounded by 9^h57.5^m<R.A.<10^h03.5^m; 1^d27.5^m<DEC<2^d57.5^m…

We report the results of preliminary analysis of the XMM_Newton EPIC and RGS observations of the candidate black-hole binary LMC X-3 between February and June 2000. The observations covered both the soft and the hard X-ray spectral states.…

Radio and optical observations of the possible microlensed BL Lac source MS 0205.7+3509 were obtained simultaneously with ASCA x-ray measurements in February 1997. A single power law model, with a photon index of 2.61, is an adequate fit to…

We present results from VERITAS observations of the BL Lac object PG 1553+113 spanning the years 2010, 2011, and 2012. The time-averaged spectrum, measured between 160 and 560\,GeV, is well described by a power law with a spectral index of…

At the end of March 2004, the blazar S5 0716+714 underwent an optical outburst that prompted for quasi-simultaneous target-of-opportunity observations with the INTEGRAL and XMM-Newton satellites. In this paper, we report the results of the…

We report on the results of a detailed analysis of the X-ray spectral properties of a large sample of sources detected serendipitously with the XMM-Newton observatory in 25 selected fields. The survey covers a total solid angle of ~3.5 deg2…

We report X-ray observations of the most distant known gravitationally lensed quasar, J0439+1634 at $z=6.52$, which is also a broad absorption line (BAL) quasar, using the XMM-Newton Observatory. With a 130 ks exposure, the quasar is…

We present a first analysis of a deep X-ray spectrum of the isolated neutron star RBS1223 obtained with XMM-Newton. Spectral data from four new monitoring observations in 2005/2006 were combined with archival observations obtained in 2003…
