The detection of very hot plasma in the quiescent corona is important for diagnosing heating mechanisms. The presence and the amount of such hot plasma is currently debated. The SphinX instrument on-board CORONAS-PHOTON mission is sensitive…

We present the results from both the timing and spectroscopic analysis of the transient X-ray pulsar GS 1843+00 observed by the BeppoSAX satellite on 1997 April 4, when the source was at a luminosity of ~10^{37} erg s^{-1}. GS 1843+00 shows…

We used high quality BeppoSAX data of 6 Seyfert galaxies to test realistic thermal Comptonization models. Our main effort was to adopt a Comptonization model taking into account the anisotropy of the soft photon field. The best fit…

We present an in-depth study of a large and long duration ($>$1.3 days) X-ray flare observed on an RS CVn type eclipsing binary system SZ Psc using observations from Swift observatory. In the 0.35$-$10 keV energy band, the peak luminosity…

The Accreting Millisecond X-ray Pulsar IGR J17591-2342 is a LMXB system that went in outburst on August 2018 and it was monitored by the NICER observatory and partially by other facilities. We aim to study how the spectral emission of this…

Short-period binaries represent extreme cases in the generation of stellar coronae via a rotational dynamo. Such stars are important for probing the origin and nature of coronae in the regimes of rapid rotation and activity saturation. VW…

We present a systematic analysis of all the BeppoSAX data of SGR 1900+14. The observations spanning five years show that the source was brighter than usual on two occasions: ~20 days after the August 1998 giant flare and during the 10^5 sec…

We present preliminary results on our campaign of observations of the X-ray binary pulsar GX301-2. BeppoSAX observed this source six times in January/February 1998: at the periastron and apoastron, and at other four, intermediate, orbital…

We report here detailed timing and spectral analysis of two Beppo-SAX observations of the binary X-ray pulsar LMC X-4 carried out during the low and high states of its 30.5 days long super-orbital period. Timing analysis clearly shows 13.5…

Understanding the relationship among different emission components plays an essential role in the study of particle acceleration and energy conversion in solar flares. In flares where gradual and impulsive emission components can be readily…

A fine analysis of spectral line widths and Doppler shifts employing Fourier transform and cross-correlation techniques has been applied to Chandra HETG spectra obtained in 1999 October of the rapidly rotating young star AB Doradus in order…

We report on the results of a broad band (0.1-100 keV) spectral analysis of the bursting atoll source MXB 1728-34 observed by the BeppoSAX satellite. Three bursts were present during this observation. The spectrum during the bursts can be…

We present new BeppoSAX LECS, MECS, and PDS observations of five lobe-dominated, broad-line active galactic nuclei selected from the 2 Jy sample of southern radio sources. These include three radio quasars and two broad-line radio galaxies.…

(Abridged) Spectral and time variability analysis of the region of the hard X-ray transient EXS 1737.9-2952 near the Galactic Centre (GC), using data from the Narrow Field Instruments of BeppoSAX is reported. The main results are the MECS…

We present a systematic analysis of all the BeppoSAX data of SGR1900+14. The observations spanning five years show that the source was brighter than usual on two occasions: ~20 days after the August 1998 giant flare and during the 10^5 s…

We study the chromosphere and corona of the ultra-fast rotator AB Dor A at high temporal and spectral resolution using simultaneous observations with XMM-Newton in the X-rays, VLT/UVES in the optical, and the ATCA in the radio. Our optical…

We report on the results from two BeppoSAX observations of the Z source GX 349+2 performed in February 2001 and covering the broad energy range 0.12-200 keV. The light curve obtained from these observations shows a large flaring activity,…

X-ray emission is an important tracer of stellar magnetic activity. We carried out a systematic correlation analysis for the X-ray luminosity $\log L_{\rm X}$, bolometric luminosity $\log L_{\rm bol}$, and X-ray activity level…

We present an analysis of BeppoSAX observations of the unique transient bursting X-ray pulsar GRO J1744-28. The observations took place in March 1997 during the decay phase of the outburst. We find that the persistent broadband X-ray…

We report on observations of the low-mass X-ray binary 4U1626-67 performed during the BeppoSAX Science Verification Phase. We present the broad-band 0.1-100 keV pulse averaged spectrum, that is well fit by a two-component function: a 0.27…
