Cooling rate and turbulence in the intracluster medium of the cool-core cluster Abell 2667

M. Lepore, C. Pinto, P. Tozzi +8

We present a detailed analysis of the thermal X-ray emission from the intracluster medium (ICM) in the cool-core galaxy cluster Abell 2667 (). Our goal is to detect low-tem…

Multi-epoch parsec-scale observations of the blazar PKS 1510-089

M. Orienti, T. Venturi, D. Dallacasa +5

(Abridged) We investigate the flux density variability and changes in the parsec-scale radio structure of the flat spectrum radio quasar PKS 1510-089. This source was target of mul…

Suzaku and SWIFT-BAT observations of a newly discovered Compton-thick AGN

P. Severgnini, A. Caccianiga, R. Della Ceca +4

Obscured AGN are fundamental to understand the history of Super Massive Black Hole growth and their influence on galaxy formation. However, the Compton-thick AGN (NH>1e24 cm^-2) po…

GRB 090423 at a redshift of z~8.1

R. Salvaterra, M. Della Valle, S. Campana +42

Gamma-ray bursts (GRBSs) are produced by rare types of massive stellar explosions. Their rapidly fading afterglows are often bright enough at optical wavelengths, that they are det…
