Te-REX: a sample of extragalactic TeV-emitting candidates

B. Balmaverde, A. Caccianiga, R. Della Ceca +7

The REX (Radio-Emitting X-ray sources) is a catalogue produced by cross-matching X-ray data from the ROSAT-PSPC archive of pointed observations and radio data from the NRAO VLA Sky…

A decline and fall in the future of Italian Astronomy?

Angelo Antonelli, Vincenzo Antonuccio-Delogu, Andrea Baruffolo +89

On May 27th 2010, the Italian astronomical community learned with concern that the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) was going to be suppressed, and that its employees wer…

The stellar population of the Rosat North Ecliptic Pole survey. II. Spectral analysis

L. Affer, G. Micela, T. Morel

X-ray surveys allow to identify young, main-sequence stars in the solar neighborhood. Young, stellar samples, selected according to their activity, can be used to determine the ste…

The space density of cataclysmic variables: constraints from the ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole Survey

M. L. Pretorius, C. Knigge, D. O'Donoghue +3

We use the ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) survey to construct a small, but purely X-ray flux-limited sample of cataclysmic variable stars (CVs). The sample includes only 4 systems…

High redshift X-ray galaxy clusters. I. The impact of point sources on the cluster properties

M. Branchesi, I. M. Gioia, C. Fanti +1

The current generation of X-ray observatories like Chandra allows studies with very fine spatial details. It is now possible to resolve X-ray point sources projected into the clust…

High redshift X-ray galaxy clusters. II. The L_X-T relationship revisited

M. Branchesi, I. M. Gioia, C. Fanti +1

In this paper we re-visit the observational relation between X-ray luminosity and temperature for high-z galaxy clusters and compare it with the local L_X-T and with theoretical mo…
