Europe's X-ray observatory defies the jinx… [PDF]
Nature, 2000 MUNICH The jinx that has destroyed or limited a string of X-ray astronomy missions launched in the last nine months appears not to have affected the European Space Agency's new X-ray observatory.

X-ray emission lines from inhomogeneous stellar winds [PDF]
, 2004 It is commonly adopted that X-rays from O stars are produced deep inside the stellar wind, and transported outwards through the bulk of the expanding matter which attenuates the radiation and affects the shape of emission line profiles.

The X-ray observatory SuzakuHigh-sensitivity wide-band X-ray spectroscopy is the key feature of the Suzaku X-ray observatory, launched on 2005 July 10. This paper summarizes the spacecraft, in-orbit performance, operations, and data processing that are related to observations. The scientific instruments, the high-throughput X-ray telescopes, X-ray CCD cameras, non-imaging hard X ...

The Cosmic History of Black Hole Growth from Deep Multiwavelength Surveys
Advances in Astronomy, 2012 Significant progress has been made in the last few years on understanding how supermassive black holes form and grow. In this paper, we begin by reviewing the spectral signatures of active galactic nuclei (AGN) ranging from radio to hard X-ray ...
