We report the results of XMM-Newton observations of two high redshift quasars, one radio-loud, RX J1028.6-0844 (z=4.276) and one radio-quiet, BR 0351-1034 (z=4.351). We find that the evidence for strong excess absorption towards RX…

We present X-ray spectra of 185 bright sources detected in the XMM-Newton deep survey of the Chandra Deep Field South, combining the three EPIC cameras. The 2-10 keV flux limit of the sample is 2e-15 erg/s/cm2. The sources are distributed…

We report the results of XMM-Newton observations of the Galactic mixed-morphology supernova remnant G350.0$-$2.0. Diffuse thermal X-ray emission fills the north-western part of the remnant surrounded by radio shell-like structures. We did…

(Abridged) We present the results of the photometric and spectroscopic identification of 110 hard X-ray selected sources (6e-15<F(2-10 keV)<4e-14 cgs) from 5 additional XMM-Newton fields, nearly doubling the original HELLAS2XMM sample. We…

We present a spectral analysis of the Seyfert 1.8 ESO 113-G010 observed with XMM-Newton for 4 ks. The spectrum shows a soft excess below 0.7 keV and more interestingly a narrow emission Gaussian line at 5.4 keV (in its rest-frame), most…

In the Chandra Deep Field South 1Msec exposure we have found, at redshift 3.700 +- 0.005, the most distant Type 2 AGN ever detected. It is the source with the hardest X-ray spectrum with redshift z>3. The optical spectrum has no detected…

We present an X-ray spectral analysis of 21 low redshift quasars observed with XMM-Newton EPIC. All the sources are Palomar Green quasars with redshifts between 0.05 and 0.4 and have low Galactic absorption along the line-of-sight. A large…
