We report the discovery of extended radio emission in the Phoenix cluster (SPT-CL J2344-4243, z=0.596) with the GMRT at 610 MHz. The diffuse emission extends over a region of at least 400-500 kpc and surrounds the central radio source of…
We have used HST I-band images to identify Mrk 273X, the very unusual high-redshift X-ray-luminous Seyfert 2 galaxy found by ROSAT in the same field-of-view as Mrk 273. We have measured the photometric properties of Mrk 273X and have also…
The cluster A3627 was recently recognized to be a very massive, nearby cluster in a galaxy survey close to the galactic plane. We are reporting on ROSAT PSPC observations of this object which confirm that the cluster is indeed very massive.…
We present a uniform analysis of the ROSAT HRI and the ASCA GIS/SIS data for 79 distant clusters of galaxies in the redshift range, 0.1 < z < 0.82 to study the global structures of the intracluster medium. We have constructed an X-ray…
We present a statistically complete sample of very X-ray luminous galaxy clusters detected in the MAssive Cluster Survey (MACS). This second MACS release comprises all 34 MACS clusters with nominal X-ray fluxes in excess of 2x10^(-12)…
We present imaging and spectroscopic observations of the gravitationally lensed arcs in the field of RX J1347.5-1145, the most X-ray luminous galaxy cluster known. Based on the detection of the [OII] 3727 emission line, we confirm that the…
By combining the REFLEX and NORAS cluster datasets with the NVSS radio catalogue, we obtain a sample of 145, z<0.3, X-ray selected clusters brighter than 3 10^(-12) erg/s/cm^2 that show a central radio emission above 3 mJy. For virial…
ROSAT observations indicate that approximately half of all nearby groups of galaxies contain spatially extended X-ray emission. The radial extent of the X-ray emission is typically 50-500 kpc or approximately 10-50% of the virial radius of…
Using a 90 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation in the 0.3--7 keV band, along with complementary Low-Frequency Array and Karl G.~Jansky Very Large Array data in the 120--168 MHz and 1--2 GHz ranges, we study the diffuse emission around the nearby…
We present results on the physical states of three high-redshift powerful radio galaxies (3C 292 at z=0.7, 3C 184 at z=1, and 3C322 at z=1.7). They were obtained by combining radio measurements with X-ray measurements from XMM-Newton that…
Two new bright X-ray sources in globular clusters, and many less luminous ones in globular clusters and in old open clusters, have been discovered with ROSAT. Accurate positions obtained with ROSAT help identification with optical objects,…
RXCJ0232.2-4420, at $z$ = 0.28, is a peculiar system hosting a radio halo source around the cool-core of the cluster. To investigate its formation and nature, we used archival {\it Chandra} and XMM-\textit{Newton} X-ray data to study the…
As the largest gravitationally bound structures known, clusters provide clear constraints on the formation of structure and on the composition of the universe. Despite their extreme importance for cosmology the number of clusters at high…
An analysis of a ROSAT/PSPC observation of the galaxy cluster A2634 is presented. The cluster has a luminosity of $7.9\pm0.1\times10^{43}$erg/s in the ROSAT band (0.1-2.4 keV). The temperature profile decreases from about 3 keV in the outer…
Based on a deep ROSAT/PSPC observation, we reveal an elongated complex of extended X-ray-emitting objects in and around the galaxy cluster A2125. Multicolor optical imaging of galaxies in the field suggests that this complex represents a…
We report the detection of hard X-ray emission (>2 keV) from a number of point sources associated with the very young massive star-forming region IRAS 19410+2336. The X-ray emission is detected from several sources located around the…
ROSAT/HRI observations of the powerful radio-loud galaxy 3C382 reveal extended X-ray emission associated with the source. On the basis of this new spatial component, a previous ROSAT/PSPC spectral analysis of the source is revised. Allowing…
We present Chandra observations of RXJ1347.5-1145, the most X-ray luminous cluster of galaxies known. We report the discovery of a region of relatively hot, bright X-ray emission, located approximately 20 arcsec to the southeast of the main…
The most spectacular aspect of cluster radio emission is represented by the large-scale diffuse radio sources, which cannot be obviously associated with any individual galaxy. These sources demonstrate the existence of relativistic…
We report the discovery of an X-ray luminous galaxy cluster at z=1.26. RXJ0848.9+4452 was selected as an X-ray cluster candidate in the ROSAT Deep Cluster Survey, on the basis of its spatial extent. Deep optical and near-IR imaging have…
