Statistical comparisons of microwave maps in the GHz range and X-ray maps at around 1 keV are an interesting probe to constrain different astrophysical phenomena. Possible correlations on various angular scales and with different frequency…

We report the discovery of a high redshift, narrow emission-line galaxy identified in the optical follow-up of deep ROSAT fields. The object has a redshift of z=2.35 and its narrow emission lines together with its high optical and X-ray…

Distribution and properties of QSOs behind galaxy clusters in the UKJ287 field were studied. QSOs were selected using variability criteria and are confined to $z \ge 0.4$ and $m_B \le 19.5$. No reddening or obscuration of background QSOs…

In the deepest optically identified X-ray survey yet performed, we have identified 32 X-ray selected QSOs to a flux limit of 2x10^{-15} erg cm^{-2} s^{-1} (0.5-2 keV). The survey, performed with the ROSAT PSPC, has 89% spectroscopic…

The 120,000 X-ray sources detected in the RASS II processing of the ROSAT All-Sky Survey are correlated with the 14,315 IRAS galaxies selected from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue: 372 IRAS galaxies show X-ray emission within a distance of…

We present the X-ray Luminosity Function (XLF) of the ROSAT Deep Cluster Survey (RDCS) sample over the redshift range 0.05-0.8. Our results are derived from a complete flux-limited subsample of 70 galaxy clusters, representing the brightest…

X-ray and optical observations of quadruply lensed quasars can provide a microarcsecond probe of the lensed quasar, corresponding to scale sizes of \~10^2-10^4 gravitational radii of the central black hole. This high angular resolution is…

In this Paper we present a clustering analysis of QSOs as a function of luminosity over the redshift range z=0.3-2.9. We use a sample of 10566 QSOs taken from the preliminary data release catalogue of the 2dF QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ). We…

Solid observational evidences indicate a strong dependence of the galaxy formation and evolution on the environment. In order to study in particular the interaction between the intracluster medium and the evolution of cluster galaxies, we…

X-ray emission and the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich distortion to the Cosmic Microwave Background are two important handles on the gas content of the Universe. The cross-correlation between these effects eliminates noise bias and reduces…

We present a measure of the power spectrum on scales from 15 to 800 Mpc/h using the ROSAT-ESO Flux-Limited X-Ray(REFLEX) galaxy cluster catalogue. The REFLEX survey provides a sample of the 452 X-ray brightest southern clusters of galaxies…

In recent years, many gamma-ray sources have been identified, yet the unresolved component hosts valuable information on the faintest emission. In order to extract it, a cross-correlation with gravitational tracers of matter in the Universe…

We present weak lensing results for 12 distant clusters determined from images obtained with the refurbished HST. We detect the signature of gravitational lensing in 11 of the 12 clusters; the clusters span nearly an order of magnitude in…

We report the possible discovery of multiple gravitationally-lensed images of QSOs with angular separations on arcminute scales. The QSOs were selected from the completed 2dF QSO survey as having redshifts and optical colours which are…

This is the third paper in a series that reports on our investigation of the clustering properties of AGNs identified in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). In this paper, we extend the redshift range to…

We review observations and gravitational lensing theory related to the magnification of background QSOs by intervening overdensities, and the induced cross-correlation between sources and foreground galaxies. We pay special attention to…

We use the first eROSITA all-sky survey (eRASS1) to investigate the contributions of AGN and extended gas to the total X-ray luminosity ($L_X$) of galaxy groups with different halo masses ($M_h$) at different redshifts. The presence of AGN…

A review of recent developments in the field of X-ray surveys, especially in the hard (2-10 and 5-10 keV) bands, is given. A new detailed comparison between the measurements in the hard band and extrapolations from ROSAT counts, that takes…
