The properties of the broad Fe line detected in two BeppoSAX observations of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 are summarized.

We report the discovery of the first transient relativistic iron K{\alpha} line in an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) J1047+5907. The line was detected 21.5 days (rest-frame) after an X-ray coronal flare observed in 2008 and it exhibits…

Broad Fe K-alpha emission lines have recently been reported in a number of Galactic black holes. Such lines are useful accretion flow diagnostics because they may be produced at the inner accretion disk and shaped by relativistic effects,…

Relativistic iron K$\alpha$ spectral emission line from the inner disc of a neutron star low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) was first detected in 2007. This discovery opened up new ways to probe strong gravity and dense matter. The past decade…

Multiple near-infrared wavelengths observations, carried out since 1993 on the galactic superluminal source of relativistic ejections GRS 1915+105, have yielded three important results. 1) The infrared counterpart of GRS 1915+105 exhibits…

This paper presents ASCA (July 1997), XMM-Newton (December 2000) and BeppoSAX (January 2001) observations of the Piccinotti Seyfert 1 galaxy ESO198-G24. The BeppoSAX 0.1-200 keV spectrum exhibits reprocessing features, probably produced by…

We present the results of a spectroscopic study of the Fe K{\alpha} emission of the persistent neutron-star atoll low-mass X-ray binary and type I X-ray burster GX 3+1 with the EPIC-PN on board XMM-Newton. The source shows a flux modulation…

The fluorescent iron Ka line is a powerful observational probe of the inner regions of black holes accretion disks. Previous studies have assumed that only material outside the radius of marginal stability can contribute to the observed…

During the September-October 2008 outburst of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658, the source was observed by both Suzaku and XMM-Newton approximately 1 day apart. Spectral analysis reveals a broad relativistic Fe K-alpha…

Reynolds & Begelman (1997) have recently proposed a model in which the broad and extremely redshifted iron line seen during a deep minimum of the light curve of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15 originates from matter spiralling into a…

The analysis of hard X-ray features in XMM-Newton data of the bright Sy 1 galaxy Mrk 335 is reported here. The presence of a broad, ionised iron K alpha emission line in the spectrum, first found by Gondoin et al.(2002), is confirmed. The…

GRS 1915+105 harbors one of the most massive known stellar black holes in the Galaxy. In May 2007, we observed GRS 1915+105 for 117 ksec in the low/hard state using Suzaku. We collected and analyzed the data with the HXD/PIN and XIS cameras…

We report the first simultaneous measure of the X-ray broadband (0.1--200 keV) continuum and of the iron K-alpha fluorescent line profile in the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15. Our data confirms the ASCA detection of a skewed and redshifted…

We present near-infrared medium-resolution ($R \sim 875$) spectra of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 on 1997 August 13-15 UTC from the Hale 200-inch telescope. The spectra showed broad emission lines of He I (2.058 $\mu$m) and H I (2.166…

We report on a 63-ks long XMM-Newton observation of the accreting millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during the latest X-ray outburst which started on September 21st 2008. The pn spectrum shows a highly significant emission line in the…

We confirm the detection of the relativistically broadened iron K-alpha emission at 6.4 keV with simultaneous Chandra HETGS and RXTE PCA observations. Heavily binned HETGS data show a disk line profile with parameters very similar to those…

We report the detection (3 sigma significance level) of a strong iron emission line in the X-ray spectrum of the afterglow of GRB 000214 (``Valentine's Day Burst'') observed by BeppoSAX. An emission line feature was observed with a centroid…

Petrucci et al. (2002; hereafter P02) have reported extraordinary behaviour of the iron K alpha line in the type 1 AGN Mrk 841. At the XMM-Newton/EPIC resolution, a narrow line was observed in a short observation, which then apparently…

This paper continues the study of the properties of an accretion disc rotating around a non-baryonic (assumed super-massive) compact object. This kind of objects, generically known as boson stars, were earlier proposed as a possible…

Archival Suzaku data of the face-on spiral galaxy M101 were analyzed. An intense emission line at 6.72^{+0.10}_{-0.12} keV was detected in the central region. This line is identified with a K-line from He-like iron, which indicates the…
