The search for diffuse non-thermal inverse Compton (IC) emission from galaxy clusters at hard X-ray energies has been undertaken with many instruments, with most detections being either of low significance or controversial. Background and…
The Galactic diffuse soft gamma-ray (30-800 keV) emission has been measured from the Galactic Center by the HIREGS balloon-borne germanium spectrometer to determine the spectral characteristics and origin of the emission. The resulting…
Measurements of the Sunyaev-Zeldovich (hereafter SZ) distorsion of the cosmic microwave background can give interesting physical informations on clusters of galaxies, provided that the electronic temperature of the gas is known. Previous…
We present MMT spectroscopic observations of two massive galaxy cluster candidates at redshift $z\sim0.07$ that show extended and diffuse X-ray emission in the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS) images. The targets were selected from a previous…
The interstellar medium of galaxies, with temperatures reaching several million degrees, provides a pivotal perspective for understanding the physical and chemical properties of star formation, galactic evolution, and their associated…
The emission nebula M17 contains a young ~1 Myr-old open cluster; the winds from the OB stars of this cluster have blown a superbubble around the cluster. ROSAT observations of M17 detected diffuse X-ray emission peaking at the cluster and…
This paper presents 52 X-ray bright galaxy clusters selected within the 11 deg$^2$ XMM-LSS survey. 51 of them have spectroscopic redshifts ($0.05<z<1.06$), one is identified at $z_{\rm phot}=1.9$, and all together make the high-purity…
We present a census of the molecular gas properties of galaxies in the most distant known X-ray cluster, CLJ1001, at z=2.51, using deep observations of CO(1-0) with JVLA. In total 14 cluster members with $M_{*} > 10^{10.5} M_{\odot}$ are…
We present the analysis of a local (z = 0.04 - 0.2) sample of 31 galaxy clusters with the aim of measuring the density of the X-ray emitting gas in cluster outskirts. We compare our results with numerical simulations to set constraints on…
RASS data near the North Galactic Pole was analyzed in order to study the large-scale distribution of soft X-ray emission from the Coma cluster. These RASS data constitute the only available X-ray observations of Coma that feature an in…
We have obtained a 12.5 ksec image of the Hercules Cluster, A2151, with the {\it ROSAT} PSPC. Comparison of the optical and X-ray data suggest the presence of at least three distinct subclusters in A2151. The brightest X-ray emission…
Suzaku observed the region including HESS J1809-193, one of the TeV unidentified (unID) sources, and confirmed existence of the extended hard X-ray emission previously reported by ASCA, as well as hard X-ray emission from the pulsar PSR…
We present a statistically-optimal and model-independent method to extract the pressure profile of hot gas in the intracluster medium (ICM). Using the thermal Sunyaev-Zeldovich effect, we constrain the mean pressure profile of the ICM by…
A soft X-ray enhancement has recently been reported toward the high-velocity cloud MS30.7-81.4-118 (MS30.7), a constituent of the Magellanic Stream. In order to investigate the origin of this enhancement, we have analyzed two overlapping…
We report the results of experiments aimed at reducing the major problem with cooling flow models of rich cluster X-ray sources: the fact that most of the cooled gas or its products have not been found. Here we show that much of the X-ray…
The GOES X1.5 class flare that occurred on August 30,2002 at 1327:30 UT is one of the few events detected so far at submillimeter wavelengths. We present a detailed analysis of this flare combining radio observations from 1.5 to 212 GHz (an…
We announce the detection of correlations on angular scales of $\ga10'$ between optically bright, high-redshift, radio-loud QSOs with diffuse X-ray emission seen by ROSAT in the {\it All-Sky Survey}. These correlations reach significance…
Almost all of the extragalactic X-ray background (XRB) at 0.25 keV can be accounted for by radio-quiet quasars, allowing us to derive an upper limit of 4 \bgunit\ for the remaining background at 0.25 keV. However, the XRB from the gas halos…
X-ray mosaics of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) taken with the ROSAT Position Sensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC) have revealed extensive diffuse X-ray emission, indicative of hot >= 10^6 K gas associated with this irregular galaxy on…
We show that interactions of fast particles with the boundary shell of the local hot bubble could make an important contribution to the 0.5-1 keV diffuse X-ray background observed with ROSAT. The bulk of these nonthermal X-rays are due to…
