The EXTraS Project: Exploring the X-ray transient and variable sky

A. De Luca, R. Salvaterra, A. Belfiore +29

Temporal variability in flux and spectral shape is ubiquitous in the X-ray sky and carries crucial information about the nature and emission physics of the sources. The EPIC instru…

EXTraS discovery of an 1.2-s X-ray pulsar in M 31

P. Esposito, G. L. Israel, A. Belfiore +13

During a search for coherent signals in the X-ray archival data of XMM-Newton, we discovered a modulation at 1.2 s in 3XMM J004301.4+413017 (3X J0043), a source lying in the direct…

The intermediate age open cluster NGC 2660

S. Sandrelli, A. Bragaglia, M. Tosi +1

We present CCD UBVI photometry of the intermediate old open cluster NGC2660, covering from the red giants region to about seven magnitudes below the main sequence turn-off. Using t…
