We present the results of BeppoSAX AO1 Core Program observations of 3C~273 performed in Jan. 1997 and compare them in detail with data obtained during the satellite Science Verification Phase (SVP), in Jul. 1996. Though a power law is an…

We report the results of a 3C273 observation performed during the Science Verification Phase (SVP) of the BeppoSax satellite. The broad-band spectrum is well represented by a power-law between 1 keV and 200 keV. The spectral slope is flat…

We report on the 20 ksec observation of Vela X-1 performed by BeppoSAX on 1996 July 14 during its Science Verification Phase. We observed the source in two intensity states, characterized by a change in luminosity of a factor ~ 2, and a…

The apparency of low energy absorption features in Blazar LECS spectra has been reported during the early phase of the BeppoSAX mission (e.g. by Grandi et al. 1997 for 3C~273 SVP data; Giommi et al. 1997 for PKS 2155--304 SVP data), with…

shortened) Results obtained from 9 X-ray observations of 3C 273 performed by ASCA are presented (for a total exposure time of about 160 000 s). The analysis and interpretation of the results is complicated by the fact that 4 of these…

We study a broad-band X-ray observation by BeppoSAX of the broad-line radio galaxy 3C 120. The primary X-ray continuum is well described by a power law with the photon index of Gamma=1.85+-0.05 and a high-energy break or a cutoff. The…

We report the results of quasi-simultaneous observations of the bright quasar 3C 273 using the BeppoSAX Low-Energy Concentrator Spectrometer (LECS) and the ASCA Solid-State Imaging Spectrometer (SIS). These observations are part of an…

The radio galaxy Centaurus A was observed by the BeppoSAX satellite five times from 1997 to 2000. From July 6 1999 to August 17 1999, the source was also simultaneously pointed by COMPTEL on-board of the satellite CGRO. Centaurus A has a…

We present the analysis of 31 observations of 20 bright Compton thin Seyfert 2s, in the 0.1-200 keV band, performed with the BeppoSAX satellite. The sample consists of all Seyfert 2s in the BeppoSAX public archive, with a 2-10 keV flux…

We present the data and preliminary analysis for a series of 90 ROSAT HRI and two ASCA observations of the broad-line radio galaxy 3C 390.3. These data were obtained during the period 1995 January 2 to 1995 October 6 as part of an intensive…

We present the results of a long-look monitoring of 3C273 with RXTE between 1996 and 2000. A total of 230 observations amounts to a net exposure of 845ksec, with this spectral and variability analysis of 3C273 covering the longest…

BeppoSAX observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 for ~ 5 days from 1998 June 6 to 1998 June 10. The average flux during the observation was F(2-10 keV) ~ 6 X 10^{-11} erg cm^-2 s^-1. The long exposure provided a very high quality spectrum…

We report on a 30 ks observation of the high-mass X-ray binary pulsar OAO1657-415 performed by BeppoSAX on September 1998. The wide band spectrum is well fit by both a cutoff power law, or a power law modified by a high energy cutoff, plus…

We present preliminary results from two observations of the radio galaxy Centaurus A performed by the BeppoSAX satellite. We did not detect any spectral variation of the nuclear continuum in spite of the long-term flux change (by a factor…

We present BeppoSAX observations of the Seyfert 1.8 galaxy NGC1365 in the 0.1--100 keV range. The source was 6 times brighter than during an ASCA observation 3 years earlier. The 4--10 keV flux is highly variable during the BeppoSAX…

The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer made a short (10 ks) observation of the radio galaxy Centaurus A on 14 August 1996. Analysis of the combined 2.5-240 keV spectrum has revealed a heavily absorbed(NH=9.42+/-0.24 e22 cm-2) primary power law…

We present the BeppoSAX observations of 3C 279 performed in 1997 January 13-23 simultaneously with gamma-ray pointings with EGRET on board CGRO and optical observations at the Torino Observatory (1997 January 11-18). ISO data close to this…

We report on an observation of the low-mass X-ray binary 4U1626-67 performed during the BeppoSAX Science Verification Phase. An absorption feature at ~37 keV, attributable to electron cyclotron resonance, has been discovered in its pulse…

We report broad-band X-ray measurements of the Be star Gamma Cassiopeiae by the BeppoSAX X-ray astronomy satellite. The observations took place on 1998 July, 18-23. The 0.1-200 keV X-ray spectrum is reasonably well fit by an optically thin…

We report on the results of the spectral and timing analysis of a BeppoSAX observation of the microquasar system LS 5039/RX J1826.2-1450. The source was found in a low-flux state with Fx(1-10 keV)= 4.7 x 10^{-12} erg cm^{-2} s^{-1}, which…
