(Abridged) Since its launch in October 2002, the INTEGRAL satellite has revolutionized our knowledge of the hard X-ray sky thanks to its unprecedented imaging capabilities and source detection positional accuracy above 20 keV. Nevertheless,…

The sky region containing the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41 has been observed three times with XMM-Newton in February and September 2004. SGR 1627-41 has been detected with an absorbed flux of ~9x10^{-14} erg cm^{-2} s^{-1} (2-10…

We estimate the high energy neutrino flux from the giant flare of SGR 1806-20 on December 27, 2004, which irradiated Earth with a gamma-ray flux ~10^4 times larger than the most luminous gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) ever detected. The Antarctic…

The low mass X-ray binary system 4U 1812-12 was monitored with the INTEGRAL observatory in the period 2003-2004 and with BeppoSAX on April 20, 2000. We report here on the spectral and temporal analysis of both persistent and burst emission.…

IGR J19405-3016 is reported in the 3rd IBIS catalog as being one of its lowest significance sources (~4.6 sigma under an exposure of about 371 ks). This leads to a caveat in multi-wavelength study although the source was identified in…

In this paper we report on the third soft gamma-ray source catalog obtained with the IBIS/ISGRI gamma-ray imager on board the INTEGRAL satellite. The scientific dataset is based on more than 40 Ms of high quality observations performed…

We report on the identification of a new soft gamma ray source, namely IGR J22517+2218, detected with IBIS/INTEGRAL. The source, which has an observed 20-100 keV flux of ~4 x10^-11 erg cm-2 s-1, is spatially coincident with MG3…

We report on 0.3-10 keV observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory of eight hard X-ray sources discovered within 8 degrees of the Galactic plane by the INTEGRAL satellite. The short (5 ks) Chandra observations of the IGR source fields…

Molecular cloud Sgr B2 is a natural Compton mirror in the Central Molecular Zone. An observed fading of the Sgr B2 X-ray emission in continuum and Fe K$\alpha$ 6.4 keV line indicates, as believed, a past X-ray flare activity of the…

We present observations of the Soft Gamma-ray Repeater SGR 1806-20 taken with the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We identify the X-ray counterpart of SGR 1806-20 based on detection of 7.5-s pulsations. Using three unrelated X-ray sources (and…

We present results of all sky survey, performed with data acquired by the IBIS telescope onboard the INTEGRAL observatory over eleven years of operation, at energies above 100 keV. A catalogue of detected sources includes 132 objects. The…

We have conducted low-frequency radio observations with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) of 40 new hard X-ray sources discovered by the INTEGRAL satellite. This survey was conducted in order, to study radio emissions from these…

Following an extensive survey of the galactic plane by the INTEGRAL satellite, new hard X-ray sources are discovered with a significant fraction of Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) among them. We report here the identification of one of these…

In this paper we report on the fourth soft gamma-ray source catalog obtained with the IBIS gamma-ray imager on board the INTEGRAL satellite. The scientific dataset is based on more than 70Ms of high quality observations performed during the…

After a long period of quiescence, the soft gamma repeater SGR1900+14 was suddenly reactivated on April 2001. On July 2, 2001, a bright flare emitted by this source triggerred the WXM and FREGATE instruments onboard the HETE-2 satellite.…

AGN are among the most energetic phenomena in the Universe and in the last two decades INTEGRAL's contribution in their study has had a significant impact. Thanks to the INTEGRAL extragalactic sky surveys, all classes of soft X-ray detected…

A systematic search for cosmic gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and other short hard X-ray events in the archival data from the IBIS/ISGRI telescope of the INTEGRAL observatory over 2003-2018 has been carried out. Seven previously unknown GRBs have…

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…

Of the 21 new sources that INTEGRAL discovered up to Feb. 1, 2004, five were detected with the BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras at earlier times. IGR J16320-4751 appears to be a persistently active X-ray source which hints at a supergiant…

With the unequalled INTEGRAL observatory, ESA has provided a unique tool to the astronomical community that has made Europe the world leader in the field of gamma-ray astronomy. INTEGRAL provides an unprecedented survey of the soft…
