We present an analysis of two deep (75 ks) Chandra observations of the European Large Area Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) Survey (ELAIS) fields N1 and N2 as the first results from the ELAIS deep X-ray survey. This survey is being conducted in well-studied regions with extensive multiwavelength coverage. Here we present the Chandra source

We present a new (V, B-V) color-magnitude diagram of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph) that extends from the tip of the red giant branch (RGB) down to V~25 mag. Data were collected with the Wide Field Imager available at the 2.2 m ESO/MPI telescope and cover an area of ~0.3 deg2 around the center of the galaxy. We confirm the occurrence of

We present new BV time series data of the Carina dwarf spheroidal galaxy (dSph). Current data cover an area of ~0.3 deg2 around the center of the galaxy and allow us to identify 92 variables. Among them 75 are RR Lyrae stars, 15 are bona fide anomalous Cepheids, one might be a Galactic field RR Lyrae star, and one is located along the Carina red

The MAGIC Cherenkov telescope with its 17 m diameter mirror is the worldwide largest dedicated Cherenkov telescope [1][2]. One of the main goals in the design of the telescope was the ability to point to any arbitrary position on the sky in less than 20 s to allow one observations of Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) after an alert by satellite experiments

We present an overview of BeppoSAX Wide Field Cameras observations of the nine most frequent type I X-ray bursters in the Galactic center region. Six years of observations (from 1996 to 2002) have amounted to 7 Ms of Galactic center observations and the detection of 1823 bursts. The 3 most frequent bursters are GX 354-0 (423 bursts), KS 1731-260
