The new Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) eROSITA X-ray telescope has a superior response to extended soft X-rays, which makes it ideal for studying low X-ray surface brightness emission of cosmic filaments. We search for extended X-ray…
We present an 82 ksec Chandra ACIS-I observation of a large-scale hierarchical complex, which consists of various clusters/groups of galaxies and low-surface brightness X-ray emission at z = 0.247. This high-resolution {\sl Chandra}…
The WARPS team reviews the properties and history of discovery of ClJ0152.7-1357, an X-ray luminous, rich cluster of galaxies at z=0.833. At L_X = 8 x 10^44 h^(-2) erg/s (0.5-2.0 keV) ClJ0152.7-1357 is the most X-ray luminous cluster known…
Using the Suzaku X-ray Imaging Spectrometer, we performed a 130 ks observation of an extended X-ray emission, which was shown by ROSAT and Chandra observations to apparently associate with the globular cluster 47 Tucanae. The obtained…
The radio, infrared and optical counterparts of the hard X-ray source GRS 1734-292 (l{II}=358.9 deg, b{II}=+1.4 deg) are reported. The optical spectrum exhibits broad (>1000 km s^-1) H alpha emission at a redshift of 0.0214 +/- 0.0005. The…
By summing a large number of ROSAT High Resolution Imager (HRI) observations of the variable radio galaxy 3C 390.3, we demonstrate that the X-ray emission associated with the northern radio lobe (reported by Prieto 1997) can be identified…
New radio and X-ray data are reported for the rich cluster Abell 2255. The cluster radio emission is characterized by the presence of a diffuse halo source, located at the cluster center, and a more peripheral ridge of radio emission which…
We report on our ASCA, Keck, and ROSAT observations of MS1137.5+6625, the second most distant cluster of galaxies in the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS), at redshift 0.78. We now have X-ray temperatures, velocity…
We report the identification of a cluster of galaxies around the high-redshift radio galaxy 3CR184 at z = 0.996. The identification is supported by an excess of galaxies observed in projection in I band images (both in ground-based and HST…
X-ray emission from the enigmatic Rotating RAdio Transients (RRATs) offers a vital clue to understanding these objects and how they relate to the greater neutron star population. An X-ray counterpart to J1819-1458 is known, and its…
The vast majority of the celestial gamma-ray sources detected so far have not yet been identified with secure counterparts at other wavelenghts. Here we report the preliminary evidence of a probable association between galaxy clusters and…
Aims. We aim to understand the nature of the diffuse radio emission surrounding the massive galaxy cluster PSZ2 G083.29-31.03, at z=0.412, already known to host a radio halo. Our investigation was triggered by Radio U-Net, a novel machine…
Using a MeerKAT observation of the galaxy cluster A3562 (a member of the Shapley Supercluster), we have discovered a narrow, long and straight, very faint radio filament, which branches out at a straight angle from the tail of a radio…
We present results from the analysis of deep ROSAT HRI and PSPC observations of the spiral galaxy M81. The inferred total (0.5-2 keV band) luminosity of M81 is ~3x10^40 ergs/s, excluding the contribution from identified interlopers found…
X-ray observations with the ROSAT HRI and with ASCA are presented for the nearby radio quasar B2 1028+313, which is located in the cD galaxy at the center of the Abell cluster A1030. We also analyze archival ROSAT PSPC observations. We find…
We present the largest sample of spectroscopically confirmed X-ray luminous high-redshift galaxy clusters to date comprising 22 systems in the range 0.9<z<\sim1.6 as part of the XMM-Newton Distant Cluster Project (XDCP). All systems were…
We report ROSAT PSPC spatial and spectral analysis of the eight B2 radio galaxies NGC 315, NGC 326, 4C 35.03, B2 0326+39, NGC 2484, B2 1040+31, B2 1855+37, and 3C 449, expected to be representative of the class of low-power radio galaxies.…
We report the detection of SN1988Z in X-rays with the ROSAT High Resolution Imager. The inferred X-ray luminosity of about $10^{41}\ergps$ can be well explained by assuming that the supernova occurred in a dense circumstellar medium,…
The X-ray emission in many clusters of galaxies shows a central peak in surface brightness coincident with a drop in temperature. These characterize a cooling flow. There is often a radio source also at the centre of such regions. Data from…
We report on the discovery of a very distant galaxy cluster serendipitously detected in the archive of the XMM-Newton mission, within the scope of the XMM-Newton Distant Cluster Project (XDCP). XMMUJ0044.0-2033 was detected at a high…
