X- and Gamma-ray Studies of Cas A: Exposing Core Collapse to the Core

, 2003
In this review of X-ray and gamma-ray observations of Cas A, evidence is discussed that Cas A was a Type Ib supernova of a Wolf-Rayet star with a main sequence mass between 22-25 Msun, that exploded after stellar wind loss had reduced its mass to ~6 Msun.

Evidence for a Fast Soft X-Ray Wind in M82 from XMM-RGS

The Astrophysical Journal
Starburst wind models predict that metals and energy are primarily carried out of the disk by hot gas ( T > 10 ^6 K), but the low energy resolution of X-ray CCD observations results in large uncertainties on the mass and energy loading.

X-ray rotational modulation of a supersaturated star in IC 2391

, 2003
We present evidence of X-ray rotational modulation on VXR45, a young fast rotator star, member of IC 2391. It is a dG9 spectral type star whose rotational period and X-ray luminosity make it a supersaturated star. Our X-ray observation, made with EPIC/PN

X-rays from Radio-Galaxies: BeppoSAX Observations [PDF]

, 2000
We briefly review BeppoSAX observations of X-ray bright radio-galaxies. Their X-ray spectra are quite varied, and perhaps surprisingly, any similarity between radio-loud AGN and Seyfert galaxies is the exception rather than the rule.

HAWC, VERITAS, Fermi-LAT, and XMM-Newton Follow-up Observations of the Unidentified Ultra-high-energy Gamma-Ray Source LHAASO J2108+5157

The Astrophysical Journal
We report observations of the ultra-high-energy gamma-ray source LHAASO J2108+5157, utilizing VERITAS, HAWC, Fermi-LAT, and XMM-Newton. VERITAS has collected ∼40 hr of data that we used to set ULs to the emission above 200 GeV.

X-rays from Quiescent Low-Mass X-ray Binary Transients

, 2000
I argue that it is very unlikely that X-rays from quiescent black-hole low-mass X-ray binary transients are emitted by coronae of companion stars. I show that in a simple model in which these X-rays are emitted by an ADAF filling the inner part of an ...

The radio and X-ray mode-switching pulsar PSR B0943+10 [PDF]

, 2017
Observations obtained in the last years challenged the widespread notion that rotation-powered neutron stars are steady X-ray emitters. Besides a few allegedly rotation-powered neutron stars that showed "magnetar-like" variability, a particularly ...
