The binary system gamma-2 Velorum (WC8+O7.5) contains the nearest known Wolf-Rayet star to the Sun, at a distance of 258$_{-31}^{+41}$ pc. Its strong radio emission shows evidence for a partially absorbed nonthermal component, which has…

The X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is generally attributed to inverse Compton scattering of accretion-disk photons by hot electrons in a compact corona. In local AGN, directly constraining coronal properties is challenging…

The very massive star system $\eta$ Carinae exhibits regular 5.54-year (2024-day) period disruptive events in wavebands ranging from the radio to X-ray. There is a growing consensus that these events likely stem from periastron passage of…

We present two BeppoSAX observations of BL Lac (2200+420) as part of a multiwavelength campaign performed in 2000. The source was in different states of activity: in June, the X-ray spectrum was faint and hard (alpha sim 0.8), with positive…

We present the results of a broad band (3-200 keV) spectral analysis of BeppoSAX and XMM-Newton observations of the Vela plerion. The hard X-ray (> 15 keV) emission is found to be extended over a region of 12'-15' radius, corresponding to a…

We report on results of two BeppoSAX observations of the Z source GX 17+2. In both cases the source is in the horizontal branch of the colour-intensity diagram. The persistent continuum can be fit by two-component models consisting of a…

We report on a 100 ks Suzaku observation of the bright, nearby (z=0.008486) Seyfert 1.9 galaxy MCG -5-23-16. The broad-band (0.4-100 keV) X-ray spectrum allows us to determine the nature of the high energy emission with little ambiguity.…

We investigate the non-thermal X-ray emission from Cas A. For the hard X-ray continuum we test the model proposed by Laming, which invokes bremsstrahlung from electrons accelerated by lower hybrid plasma waves. The justification for this…

We present the main results of a study of spectral and energetics properties of twelve gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with redshift estimates. All GRBs in our sample were detected by BeppoSAX in a broad energy range (2-700 keV). From the redshift…

The binary eta Carinae is the closest example of a very massive star, which may have formed through a merger during its Great Eruption in the mid-nineteenth century. We aimed to confirm and improve the kinematics using a spectroscopic data…

Previous submillimetre (submm) observations detected 0.7 solar masses of cool dust emission around the Luminous Blue Variable (LBV) star Eta Carinae. These observations were hindered by the low declination of Eta Carinae and contamination…

We have measured the brightness variations in Eta Carinae for the past six years using the Hubble Space Telescope Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph and Advanced Camera for Surveys. Unlike ground-based data, observations by the HST allow…

A large number of new black widow and redback energetic millisecond pulsars with irradiated stellar companions have been discovered through radio searches of unidentified \emph{Fermi} sources. We construct a 3D emission model of these…

We present results of X-ray observations of the Coma cluster with multiple instruments over a broad energy band. Using the data from INTEGRAL, RXTE and ROSAT observatories, we find that the Coma spectrum in the 0.5-107 keV energy band can…

We present X-ray results on the ultraluminous infrared galaxy Arp220 obtained with BeppoSAX. The X-ray emission up to 10 keV is detected. No significant signal is detected with the PDS detector in the higher energy band. The 2-10 keV…

After 34 years, the black-hole candidate EXO 1846-031 went into outburst again in 2019. We investigate its spectral properties in the hard intermediate and the soft states with NuSTAR and Insight-HXMT. A reflection component has been…

The low resolution X-ray spectra around $\eta$ Car covering Tr 16 and part of Tr 14 have been extracted from a Chandra CCD ACIS image. Various analysis techniques have been applied to the spectra based on their count rates. The spectra with…

A nearby super-luminous burst GRB 130427A was simultaneously detected by six $\gamma$-ray space telescopes ({\it Swift}, Fermi-GBM/LAT, Konus-Wind, SPI-ACS/INTEGRAL, AGILE and RHESSI) and by three RAPTOR full-sky persistent monitors. The…

The {\eta} Carinae binary system hosts the most massive stars with the highest known mass-loss rate. Its dense wind encounters the faster wind expelled by the companion, dissipating mechanical energy in the shock, accelerating particles up…

We have used the excellent sensitivity of XMM-Newton to obtain the first high-quality X-ray spectrum of a Wolf-Rayet (WR) star which is not known to be a member of a binary system. Our target, the nitrogen-type star WR 110 (= HD 165688) was…
