We have discovered an x-ray source, SAX J0635+0533, with a hard spectrum within the error box of the GeV gamma-ray source in Monoceros, 2EG J0635+0521. The unabsorbed x-ray flux is 1.2*10^-11 erg cm^-2 s^-1 in the 2-10 keV band. The x-ray…

We present results from a Chandra X-ray Observatory study of the field X-ray source populations in 4 different observations: two high-redshift (z~0.5) clusters of galaxies 3C295 and RXJ003033.2+261819; and two non-cluster fields with…

We present near-infrared long-slit spectra of eight optically-dim X-ray sources obtained with ISAAC on the Very Large Telescope. Six of the sources have hard X-ray emission with a significant fraction of the counts emerging above 2 keV. All…

We present the optical, near-infrared, submillimeter, and radio follow-up catalog of the X-ray selected sources from the 1 Ms Chandra observation of the Hubble Deep Field North region. We have B, V, R, I, and z' magnitudes for the 370 X-ray…

We present results of optical identification of the ASCA Large Sky Survey. X-ray sources which have hard X-ray spectra were identified with type-2 AGN at redshifts smaller than 0.5. It is supported that the absorbed X-ray spectrum of type-2…

We present the first X-ray observation at sub-arcsecond resolution of the high-redshift ($z=6.18$) radio-loud quasar CFHQS J142952+544717 (J1429). The ~100 net-count 0.3-7 keV spectrum obtained from $\sim 30$ ksec Chandra exposure is best…

We report on a Chandra line spectrum observation of the O supergiant, Zeta Orionis (O9.7 Ib). A 73.4 ks HETGS observation shows a wide range of ionization stages and line strengths over the wavelength range of 5 to 26 A. The observed…

Deep Chandra X-ray exposures provide an efficient route for locating optically faint active galactic nuclei (AGN) at high redshifts. We use deep multicolor optical data to search for z>5 AGN in the 2 Ms X-ray exposure of the Chandra Deep…

The imaging atmospheric Cherenkov array H.E.S.S. recently discovered an extended source in the 0.4$-$10 TeV energy range, HESS J1303-631. We obtained a 5 ks observation with the ACIS-I array on the Chandra X-ray observatory that does not…

The ~1 Ms Chandra Deep Field North observation is used to study the extended X-ray sources in the region surrounding the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N), yielding the most sensitive probe of extended X-ray emission at cosmological distances…

We present a measurement of the surface brightness of the cosmic X-ray background (CXB) in the Chandra Deep Fields, after excluding all detected X-ray, optical and infrared sources. The work is motivated by a recent X-ray stacking analysis…

(abridged) We present a catalog of 2357 point sources detected during 590 ks of Chandra observations of the 17-by-17 arcminute field around Sgr A*. This field encompasses a physical area of 40 by 40 pc at a distance of 8 kpc. The…

Using the Chandra ACIS-I instruments, we have carried out the deepest X-ray observation on a typical Galactic plane region at l 28.5 deg, where no discrete X-ray sources have been known previously. We have detected, as well as strong…

We present first results of the X-ray spectral analysis of the 500 ksec deep survey obtained with XMM-Newton on the Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS). Statistical distributions of spectral index and intrinsic absorption are derived for a…

We present the results of a 50 ks long Chandra observation of the dipping source XB 1916-053. During the observation two X-ray bursts occurred and the dips were not present at each orbital period. From the zero-order image we estimate the…

We present point-source catalogs for the ~2 Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S); this is one of the two most-sensitive X-ray surveys ever performed. The survey covers an area of ~436 arcmin^2 and reaches on-axis sensitivity…

We found diffuse hard X-ray sources, G11.0+0.0, G25.5+0.0, and G26.6-0.1 in the ASCA Galactic plane survey data. The X-ray spectra are featureless with no emission line, and are fitted with both models of a thin thermal plasma in…

We report on the detection of a soft spatially-extended component of X-ray emission around four intermediate-redshift 3C quasars observed with Chandra: 3C254, 3C263, 3C275.1 and 3C281. The bolometric luminosity of this emission ranges over…

We report the discovery of large scale structures of X-ray sources in the 1Msec observation of the Chandra Deep Field South. Two main structures appear as narrow (Delta_z < 0.02) spikes in the source redshift distribution at z=0.67 and…

We provide constraints on the nature of the optically faint (I>=24) X-ray source population from a 1 Ms Chandra exposure of a 8.4x8.4 arcmin region containing the Hubble Deep Field North. We detect 47 (2,400 deg^-2) optically faint X-ray…
