Highlights from XMM-Newton
X. Barcons, I. Negueruela
The launch of the Chandra (NASA) and XMM-Newton (ESA) X-ray observatories in 1999 has revolutionized our view of the Universe, by providing astrophysical information about many cla…
The XMM-Newton Bright Serendipitous Source Sample (XMM-Newton BSS)
R. Della Ceca, T. Maccacaro, A. Caccianiga +15
The XMM-Newton Survey Science Center is constructing a large (~1000 sources) and complete sample of bright serendipitous XMM-Newton sources at high galactic latitude, so as to allo…
Clustering in the X-ray Universe
X. Barcons, F. J. Carrera, M. T. Ceballos +1
In this paper we discuss various possibilities of using X-ray observations to gain information about the large-scale structure of the Universe. After reviewing briefly the current…
XEUS - The X-ray Evolving Universe Spectroscopy Mission
A. N. Parmar, T. Peacock, M. Bavdaz +19
XEUS is under study by ESA as part of the Horizon 2000+ program to utilize the International Space Station (ISS) for astronomical applications. XEUS will be a long-term X-ray obser…
Discovery of an X-ray selected radio-loud obscured AGN at z=1.246
X. Barcons, R. Carballo, M. T. Ceballos +2
We have discovered an obscured active galaxy at redshift z = 1.246 identified with the ROSAT X-ray source RX J1011.2+5545. We report on multiwavelength observations of this source…
The Galaxy-Absorber Cross-Correlation Function
Kenneth M. Lanzetta, John K. Webb, Xavier Barcons
We describe an analysis of the galaxy-absorber cross-correlation function as a function of velocity separation, impact parameter separation, and absorber Lyman alpha equivalent wid…
