We present optical identifications and a multi-band catalogue of a sample of 478 X-ray sources in the XMM and Chandra surveys of the central 0.6 deg^2 of the ELAIS-S1 field. The optical/infrared counterpart of each X-ray source was…

We present the catalog of 477 spectra from the Serendipitous Extragalactic X-ray Source Identification (SEXSI) program, a survey designed to probe the dominant contributors to the 2-10 keV cosmic X-ray background. Our survey covers 1 deg^2…

(Abridged) We present the results of the photometric and spectroscopic identification of 110 hard X-ray selected sources (6e-15<F(2-10 keV)<4e-14 cgs) from 5 additional XMM-Newton fields, nearly doubling the original HELLAS2XMM sample. We…

We present a first catalog of sources detected by the Mikhail Pavlinsky ART-XC telescope on board the SRG observatory in the 4-12 keV energy band during its ongoing all-sky survey. The catalog comprises 867 sources detected on the combined…

We analyse the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the eclipsing supersoft X-ray source CAL 87 covering wavelengths from X-rays to the near-infrared. Our study incorporates 26 data points across ultraviolet to near-infrared, sourced from…

We present the first results on the identifications of a medium sensitivity survey (X-ray flux limit 2E-14 erg/cm2/s in the 0.5-4.5 keV band) at high galactic latitude (|b|>20 deg) carried out with the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory within…

We present a summary of an identification program of the more than 2000 X-ray sources detected during the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (Voges et al. 1999) at high galactic latitude, |b| > 30 degr, with countrate above 0.2 s-1. This program, termed…

We present preliminary results on the XMM-Newton Survey Science Centre medium sensitivity survey (XMS), with 0.5-4.5 keV flux limit 2 10^{-14} erg/cm2/s. At present, 19 fields have been examined with a total of 239 X-ray sources.…

AIMS: We present a sample of candidate quasars selected using the KX-technique. The data cover 0.68 deg^2 of the X-ray Multi-Mirror (XMM) Large-Scale Structure (LSS) survey area where overlapping multi-wavelength imaging data permits an…

This programme is aimed at obtaining one of the largest X-ray selected samples of identified active galactic nuclei to date in order to characterise such a population at intermediate fluxes, where most of the Universe's accretion power…

Since its launch in 1999, the XMM-\textit{Newton} mission has compiled the largest catalogue of serendipitous X-ray sources, with the 3XMM being the third version of this catalogue. This is because of the combination of a large effective…
