We report on the analysis of an archival observation of part of the {\alpha} Persei cluster obtained with XMM-Newton. We detected 102 X-ray sources in the band 0.3-8.0 keV, of which 39 of them are associated with the cluster as evidenced by…
The XMM-Newton Survey Science Center is currently conducting an optical identification programme of serendipitous EPIC sources at low galactic latitudes. The aim of this study is to quantify the various populations contributing to the…
We exploit XMM-Newton archival data in a study of the extended X-ray emission emanating from the Galactic Centre (GC) region. EPIC-pn and EPIC-MOS observations, with a total exposure approaching 0.5 and 1 Ms respectively, were used to…
The X-ray emission of neutron stars enables a probe of their temperatures, geometries, and magnetospheric properties. The current number of X-ray emitting pulsars is insufficient to rule out observational biases that may arise from poorly…
Emission line at the energy ~3.55 keV detected in different galaxies and galaxy clusters has caused a lot of discussion in high-energy astrophysics and particle physics communities. To reveal the origin of the line, we analyzed publicly…
Massive galaxy clusters are interesting astrophysical and cosmological study objects, but are relatively rare. In the redshift range z = 0.25 to 0.5 which is, for example, a favourable region for gravitational lensing studies, about 100…
Cosmological probes based on galaxy clusters rely on cluster number counts and large-scale structure information. X-ray cluster surveys are well suited for this purpose, since they are far less affected than optical surveys by projection…
This paper presents the construction of the RapidXMM database that is available through the XMM-Newton Science Archive and offers access to upper limits and aperture photometry across the field of view of the XMM-Newton Pointed and Slew…
The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is a serendipitous search for galaxy clusters using all publicly available data in the XMM-Newton Science Archive. Its main aims are to measure cosmological parameters and trace the evolution of X-ray scaling…
The nearby (d=5.0 pc) brown dwarf LP944-20 was observed with the XMM-Newton satellite on 07 January 2001. The target was detected with the Optical Monitor (V=16.736$\pm$0.081), but it was not detected during the $\approx 48$ ks observation…
During the lifetime of GRANAT orbital observatory the SIGMA telescope collected X-ray images of more than 1/4 of the whole sky. Among these regions the Galactic Center had largest exposure time (~9 million sec). In the present work we…
The nature of the X-ray source RX J1914+24 has been the subject of much debate. It shows a prominent period of 569 sec in X-rays and the optical/infra-red: in most models this has been interpreted as the binary orbital period. We present…
We present a new method for determining the sensitivity of X-ray imaging observations, which correctly accounts for the observational biases that affect the probability of detecting a source of a given X-ray flux, without the need to…
Further achievements of the XMM-Newton cross-calibration - XMM internal as well as with other X-ray missions - are presented. We explain the major changes in the new version SASv6.5 of the XMM-Newton science analysis system. The current…
The nature and origin of the soft X-ray excess in radio quiet AGN is still an open issue. The interpretation in terms of thermal disc emission has been challanged by the discovery of the constancy of the effective temperature despite the…
The recent updates of the North Ecliptic Pole deep (0.5~deg$^2$, NEP-Deep) multi-wavelength survey covering from X-ray to radio-wave is presented. The NEP-Deep provides us with several thousands of 15~$\mu$m or 18~$\mu$m selected sample of…
This paper summarizes some cosmologically interesting measurements which are uniquely possible in the hard X-ray band and presents a mission concept capable of achieving them. The Present Epoch Plus mission will achieve a surface brightness…
We present selected results on the X-ray spectroscopy of distant, obscured AGN as obtained with the ultra-deep (~3 Ms) XMM-Newton survey in the Chandra Deep Field South (CDF-S). One of the primary goals of the project is to characterize the…
We explore the X-ray properties of optically selected QSOs spectroscopically identified in the course of the 2dF QSO survey (2QZ). Our main goal is to expand to higher redshifts previous findings suggesting the presence of a fraction of…
XMM-Newton observations of the polar SDSSJ155331.12+551614.5 reveal that all the X-ray flux emerges at energies less than 2 keV. The best fit to the spectrum is with a thermal plasma with kT=0.8 keV plus a 20-90 ev black body, yielding a…
