We report on the detection of a feature with negative radio flux in a sensitive, low resolution observation with the VLA. This morphologically peculiar feature is approximately 25" 65" in size with a peak central amplitude of about -0.25 mK…

The radio galaxy Cen A has been detected all the way up to the TeV energy range. This raises the question about the dominant emission mechanisms in the high-energy domain. Spectral analysis allows us to put constraints on the possible…

We present the results of Suzaku observation of the radio halo cluster Abell 2319. The metal abundance in the central cool region is found to be higher than the surrounding region, which was not resolved in the former studies. We confirm…

The spectrum of the 0.1-7.0 keV cosmic X-ray background (CXB) at galactic latitudes >|25| degrees has been measured using the BeppoSAX Low-Energy Spectrometer Concentrator (LECS). Above 1 keV the spectrum is consistent with a power-law of…

We have analyzed all available archival XMM-Newton observations of X Comae, a bright X-ray quasar behind the Coma cluster, to study the properties of the warm-hot intergalactic medium in the vicinity of the nearest massive galaxy cluster.…

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…

X-ray emission due to inverse-Compton scattering of microwave background photons by electrons in the lobes of powerful radio galaxies has now been seen in a large number of objects. Combining an inverse-Compton model for the lobe X-ray…

The cluster of galaxies A2256 was observed by the PCA and HEXTE experiments aboard the RXTE satellite during the period July 2001 - January 2002, for a total of 343 ks and 88 ks, respectively. Most of the emission is thermal, but the data…

We present the preliminary results of a survey that makes use of several deep exposures obtained with the X-Ray telescopes of the BeppoSAX satellite. The survey limiting sensitivity is 5 x 10^-14 cgs in the 2-10 keV band and 7 x 10^-14 cgs…

Using Chandra imaging spectroscopy and VLA L-band maps, we have identified radio galaxies at P(1.4 GHz) >= 3x10^{23} W Hz^{-1} and X-ray point sources (XPSs) at L(0.3-8 keV) >= 10^{42} ergs s^{-1} in 11 moderate redshift (0.2<z<0.4)…

We present the broadband analysis of the powerful quasar 4C04.42 (z=0.965) observed by XMM and INTEGRAL. The 0.2--200 keV spectrum is well reproduced with a hard power-law component ($\Gamma\sim$1.2), augmented by a soft component below 2…

We propose that the X-ray emission detected by Chandra from the 100-kiloparsec-scale jet of PKS 0637-752 is produced through inverse Compton scattering of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). We analyze the physical state of the jet and…

We report the detection of both soft and hard excess X-ray emission in the cluster of galaxies A 2199, based upon spatially resolved spectroscopy with data from the BeppoSAX, EUVE and ROSAT missions. The excess emission is visible at radii…

We present a temperature map and a temperature profile of the central part (r < 20' or 1/4 virial radius) of the Coma cluster. We combined 5 overlapping pointings made with XMM/EPIC/MOS and extracted spectra in boxes of 3.5' X 3.5'. The…

The solar steady emission in gamma rays is due to the interactions of Galactic cosmic rays with the solar atmosphere and with the low-energy solar photon field via inverse Compton scattering. The emission is sensitive to the magnetic field…

We report broad band (0.1-200 keV) X-ray observations, made by BeppoSAX, of a sample of bright Seyfert 2 galaxies: NGC7172, NGC2110, NGC4507, Mkn 3 and NGC7674. These spectra provide a better understanding of the effects of X-ray…

The detection of a nonthermal excess in the Coma cluster spectrum by two BeppoSAX observations analyzed with the XAS package (Fusco-Femiano et al.) has been disavowed by an analysis (Rossetti & Molendi) performed with a different software…

The Galactic Center Region has been surveyed in 1997-1998 with the Narrow Field Instruments on-board the BeppoSAX satellite (2-10keV energy range). The X-ray emission from SgrA*, the putative supermassive black hole at the center of our…
