The spectra of several X-ray binary pulsars display a clear soft excess, which in most cases can be described with a blackbody model, above the main power-law component. While in the high-luminosity sources it is usually characterized by…

We report on X-ray monitoring of two isolated pulsars within the same RXTE field of view. PSR J1811-1925 in the young supernova remnant G11.2-0.3 has a nearly sinusoidal pulse profile with a hard pulsed spectrum (photon index \~1.2). The…

We report the results of a 30 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation of the isolated compact object 1RXS J141256.0+792204 (Calvera). The X-ray spectrum is adequately described by an absorbed neutron star hydrogen atmosphere model with an effective…

We present analyses of deep radio observations of M83 taken with the Very Large Array spanning fifteen years, including never before published observations from 1990 and 1998. We report on the evolution of 55 individual point sources, which…

We present archival data from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory that reveal a bright point source to the southeast of the center of the young supernova remnant G292.0+1.8 that is coincident with the peak of highest radio surface brightness. The…

We present here the X-ray observation of a Crab-like supernova remnant (SNR) 3C58 with ASCA. We find that the integrated energy spectrum over the nebula is consistent with previous results, showing a power-law spectrum with the photon index…

We report the study of the short (32 ms) and first SGR-like burst observed from the anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 1E 1841-045 associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) Kes 73, discovered on 2010 May 6 by the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT)…

We present a 2 - 10 keV ASCA observation of the field around the soft gamma repeater SGR1627-41. A quiescent X-ray source was detected in this observation whose position was consistent both with that of a recently discovered BeppoSAX X-ray…

AX J2049.6+2939 is a compact X-ray source in the vicinity of the southern blow-up region of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant (Miyata et al. 1998a). This source was the brightest X-ray source inside the Cygnus Loop observed during the ASCA…

Thanks to the use of advanced analysis techniques, the H.E.S.S. imaging Cherenkov telescope array has now reached a sensitivity level allowing the detection of sources with fluxes around 1% of the Crab with a limited observation time (less…

We report the results of an X-ray observing campaign on the massive, evolved star Eta Carinae, concentrating on the 2003 X-ray minimum as seen by the XMM-Newton observatory. These are the first spatially-resolved X-ray monitoring…

We have analyzed the two longest (elapsed time > 3 days) BeppoSAX observations of the X-ray brightest Seyfert galaxy, NGC 4151, to search for spectral variability on time-scales from a few tens of ksec to years. We found in both cases…
