Ultraluminous X-ray sources in the first eROSITA survey I. Candidate catalogs

P. Weber, T. P. Roberts, S. Hämmerich +28

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are luminous non-nuclear X-ray point sources embedded in galaxies. Their luminosities exceeding 10^39 erg/s potentially require sub-Eddington acc…

Tracking down the broadband polarimetric properties of PG 1553+113

Riccardo Middei, Svetlana G. Jorstad, Alan P. Marscher +78

We report on a nine-month monitoring campaign of the blazar PG 1553+113, relying on three observations carried out in 2025 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and su…

BLAZ4R and the eROSITA view of z>4 blazars

Tullia Sbarrato, Silvia Belladitta, Julien Wolf +8

We present BLAZ4R, the first living catalog of confirmed blazars, with a focus on the contribution of eROSITA, on board of the Spectrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) spacecraft. Blaza…

Rapid jet ejection from PKS 0215+015 coincident with a high-energy neutrino event

F. Eppel, M. Kadler, E. Ros +19

Aims. We present a new neutrino-blazar multiwavelength flare coincidence observed in the blazar PKS 0215+015, which showed a strong multiwavelength outburst in coincidence with the…

The IXPE and multifrequency polarimetric view of the extreme blazars 1ES 1101-232 and RGB J0710+591

Fabrizio Tavecchio, Dawoon E. Kim, Gabriel Emery +53

Multiwavelength polarimetry is a powerful tool to probe magnetic field and flow geometries in the relativistic jets of blazars. In this respect, particularly interesting are the so…

Unveiling blazar synchrotron emission: a multiwavelength polarimetric study of HSP and LSP populations

Sara Capecchiacci, Ioannis Liodakis, Riccardo Middei +96

Polarimetric properties of blazars allow us to put constraints on the acceleration mechanisms that fuel their powerful jets. By studying the multiwavelength polarimetric behaviour…

eROSITA (eRASS1) study of the Canis Major overdensity: Developing a multi-wavelength algorithm for classifying faint X-ray sources

Sara Saeedi, Manami Sasaki, Jonathan Knies +6

Using the data of eROSITA (extended Roentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) on board Spektrum-Roentgen-Gamma (Spektr-RG, SRG) taken during the first eROSITA all-sky survey…

The eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS): the hard X-ray selected sample

K. Nandra, S. G. H. Waddell, T. Liu +25

During its calibration and performance verification phase, the eROSITA instrument aboard the SRG satellite performed a uniform wide--area X-ray survey of approximately 140 deg$^{2}…

Probing the physical properties of the IGM using SRG/eROSITA spectra from blazars

E. Gatuzz, J. Wilms, S. Hämmerich +1

Most baryonic matter resides in the intergalactic medium (IGM), a diffuse gas primarily composed of ionized hydrogen and helium, filling the space between galaxies. Observations of…

The SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey: First X-ray catalogues and data release of the western Galactic hemisphere

A. Merloni, G. Lamer, T. Liu +142

The eROSITA telescope array aboard the Spektrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) satellite began surveying the sky in December 2019, with the aim of producing all-sky X-ray source lists and sk…

VLBI Scrutiny of a New Neutrino-Blazar Multiwavelength-Flare Coincidence

F. Eppel, M. Kadler, E. Ros +20

In the past years, evidence has started piling up that some high-energy cosmic neutrinos can be associated with blazars in flaring states. On February 26, 2022, a new blazar-neutri…
