Arp 270 (NGC 3395 and NGC 3396) is the system of two actively star-forming late-type galaxies in contact, which already have experienced at least one close encounter in the past. We performed long-slit observations of peripheric regions of…
We present results from a 90 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation of the X-ray luminous interacting galaxy system Arp 299 (NGC 3690/IC 694). We detect 25 discrete X-ray sources with luminosities above 4.0x10^38 erg s^-1 covering the entire Ultra…
(Abridged) We report the results of a 20 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation of the interacting galaxy pair NGC 4485/4490. A total of 29 discrete X-ray sources are found coincident with NGC 4490, but only one is found within NGC 4485. The sources…
We report results of a Chandra observation of the X-ray luminous star-forming galaxy Arp299 (NGC3690/IC694). We detect 18 discrete X-ray sources with luminosities above ~10^39 erg\s (0.5-8.0 keV band), which contribute ~40% of the total…
We report on high-sensitivity neutral hydrogen observations toward the gas-rich interacting galaxies NGC 3395/3396 with the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). Compared to previous observations carried out by the…
We have observed the Arp 270 system (NGC 3395 & NGC 3396) in H{\alpha} emission using the GH{\alpha}FaS Fabry-Perot spectrometer on the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope (La Palma). In NGC 3396, which is edge-on to us, we detect gas inflow…
Presented here are high spatial and spectral resolution Chandra X-ray observations of the famous interacting galaxy pair, the Mice, a system similar to, though less evolved than, the well-known Antennae galaxies. Previously unpublished…
The pre-merging system of galaxy clusters Abell 3391-Abell 3395 located at a mean redshift of 0.053 has been observed at 1 GHz in an ASKAP/EMU Early Science observation as well as in X-rays with eROSITA. The projected separation of the…
We have conducted a statistical analysis of the ultra-luminous X-ray point sources (ULXs; L(X) >= 10^39 erg/s) in a sample of galaxies selected from the Arp Atlas of Peculiar Galaxies. We find a possible enhancement of a factor of ~2-4 in…
From a Chandra survey of nine interacting galaxy systems the evolution of X-ray emission during the merger process has been investigated. It is found that the X-ray luminosity peaks ~300 Myr before nuclear coalescence, and then dips, even…
We present a detailed analysis of high-resolution Chandra observations of the merger system NGC3256, the most IR luminous galaxy in the nearby universe. The X-ray data show that several discrete sources embedded in complex diffuse emission…
We present the properties of the discrete X-ray sources detected in our monitoring program of the `typical' elliptical galaxy, NGC 3379, observed with Chandra ACIS-S in five separate pointings, resulting in a co-added exposure of 324-ks.…
A Chandra observation of the intermediate luminosity (M_B=-20) elliptical galaxy NGC 3379 resolves 75% of the X-ray emission within the central 5kpc into point sources. Spectral analysis of the remaining unresolved emission within the…
We present Chandra X-ray images for the interacting galaxy pair NGC 7714/5. In addition to the unresolved starburst nucleus, a variable point source with L(X) ~ 10^40 erg/s was detected 1.5" (270 pc) northwest of the nucleus, coincident…
(abridged) High spatial and spectral resolution Chandra X-ray observations of the anomalous merging galaxy NGC520, a similarly-evolved system to the well-known Antennae galaxies, are presented here. Of great interest is the fact that…
We present XMM-Newton X-ray observations of the interacting galaxy pairs NGC7771/7770 and NGC2342/2341. In NGC7771, for the first time we are able to resolve the X-ray emission into a bright central source (L(X)~10^41 erg/s), plus two…
We present XMM-Newton observations of three X-ray under-luminous elliptical galaxies, NGC 3585, NGC 4494 and NGC 5322. All three galaxies have relatively large optical luminosities (log LB=10.35-10.67 solar) but have X-ray luminosities…
We present a Chandra observation of the central (r< 200kpc) region of the cluster of galaxies 2A 0335+096, rich in interesting phenomena. On large scales (r> 40kpc), the X-ray surface brightness is symmetric and slightly elliptical. The…
We present a comprehensive study of the total X-ray emission from the colliding galaxy pair NGC2207/IC2163, based on Chandra, Spitzer, and GALEX data. We detect 28 ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs), 7 of which were not detected previously…
A 40 ks \emph{Chandra} ACIS-S observation of the dynamically young cluster A1367 yields new insights on X-ray emission from cluster member galaxies. We detect 59 point-like sources in the ACIS field, of which 8 are identified with known…
