The goal of this work is to investigate the Faraday rotation measure (RM) of radio galaxies in hot galaxy clusters in order to establish a possible connection between the magnetic field strength and the gas temperature of the intracluster…

To study some characteristics of the interstellar medium, observational data of pulsars with large Faraday rotation values (|RM|> 300 rad / m2) were used. It was suggested and justified that large |RM| values can be due to the contribution…

We report the results of a survey of the Galactic Center region (|l| < 2deg, |b| < 0.5deg) performed with the BeppoSAX satellite. The flux from the center of our Galaxy corresponds to a luminosity of ~3 10^{35} erg/s in the 2-10 keV range.…
