X-Ray Surveys

P. Giommi, F. Fiore, M. Perri

A review of recent developments in the field of X-ray surveys, especially in the hard (2-10 and 5-10 keV) bands, is given. A new detailed comparison between the measurements in the…

One more surprise from the Circinus Galaxy: BeppoSAX discovery of a transmission component in hard X-rays

G. Matt, M. Guainazzi, R. Maiolino +11

The Circinus Galaxy has been observed, for the first time above 10 keV, by BeppoSAX. An excess emission above the extrapolation of the best fit 0.1--10 keV spectrum is apparent in…

The BeppoSAX High Energy Large Area Survey (HELLAS)

F. Fiore, P. Giommi, F. La Franca +9

We have surveyed about 50 deg-2 of sky in the largely unexplored 5-10 keV band using the BeppoSAX MECS instrument, finding 180 sources. After correction for the non uniform sky cov…

The High Energy Resolution View of Ionized Absorbers in AGN

F. Nicastro, F. Fiore, G. Matt

A number of emission and absorption features are expected to be visible in high energy resolution X-ray spectra of type 1 AGN with ionized gas along the line of sight (so called "w…

Signatures of Resonant Absoprtion in X-ray Spectra of Type 1 AGN

F. Nicastro, F. Fiore, G. Matt

We present photoionization models accounting for both photoelectric and resonant absorption. We demonstrate that resonance absorption lines are detectable even in moderate resoluti…

High resolution imaging of the X-ray afterglow of GRB970228 with ROSAT

F. Frontera, J. Greiner, L. A. Antonelli +6

We report results of a ROSAT High-Resolution Imager (HRI) observation of the X-ray error box given by the BeppoSAX Wide Field Camera for the gamma-ray burst that occurred on 1997 F…
