Many X-ray accreting pulsars have a soft excess below 10 keV. This feature has been detected also in faint sources and at low luminosity levels, suggesting that it is an ubiquitous phenomenon. In the case of the high luminosity pulsars (Lx…

We report the discovery of SRGE J075818-612027, a deep stream-eclipsing magnetic cataclysmic variable found serendipitously in SRG/eROSITA CalPV observations of the open cluster NGC~2516 as an unrelated X-ray source. An X-ray timing and…

AX J1749.1-2733 is an unclassified transient X-ray source discovered during surveys by ASCA in 1993-1999. A multi-wavelength study in NIR, optical, X-rays and hard X-rays is undertaken in order to determine its nature. AX J1749.1-2733 is a…

Time-resolved observations of a 6' x 6' field, containing the position error boxes of the X-ray source 1WGA J1958.2+3232, were performed in June 1999 with the 91 cm Catania telescope, equipped with a Photon Counting Intensified CCD. The…

RX J0947.0+4721 is a newly discovered example of a narrow-line Seyfert 1 type object with a quasar level luminosity (M_B = -24.8). It was detected in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) and later in 17 pointed observations of the ROSAT Position…

We report the discovery of a new X-ray pulsar, XTE J1810-197. The source was serendipitously discovered on 2003 July 15 by the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) while observing the soft gamma repeater SGR 1806-20. The pulsar has a 5.54 s…
