- Description:
- We studied the X-ray properties of the young (~1-8Myr) open cluster around the hot (O8 III) star {lambda} Ori and compared them with those of the similarly-aged sigma Ori cluster to investigate possible effects of the different ambient environment. We analysed an XMM-Newton observation of the cluster using EPIC imaging and low-resolution spectral data. We studied the variability of detected sources, and performed a spectral analysis of the brightest sources in the field using multi-temperature models.

- Description:
- This paper presents the results of a detailed X-ray spectral analysis of a sample of 123 X-ray sources detected with XMM-Newton in the Lockman Hole field. This is the deepest observation carried out with XMM-Newton with more that 600ks of good EPIC-pn data. We have spectra with good signal to noise (>500 source counts) for all objects down to 0.2-12keV fluxes of 5x10^-15^erg/cm^2^/s (flux limit of 6x10^-16^erg/cm^2^/s in the 0.5-2 and 2-10keV bands). At the time of the analysis, we had optical spectroscopic identifications for 60% of the sources, 46 being optical type-1 AGN and 28 optical type-2 AGN. Using a single power law model our sources' average spectral slope hardens at faint 0.5-2keV fluxes but not at faint 2-10keV fluxes.

- Description:
- We present an analysis of the X-ray properties of the Magellanic-type galaxy NGC 55 based on two contiguous XMM-Newton observations. We detect a total of 137 X-ray sources in the field of view, down to a flux of ~5x10^-15^erg/cm^2^/s (0.3-6keV), 42 of which are located within the optical confines of the galaxy. On the basis of X-ray colour classification and after correcting for background objects, we conclude that our source sample includes ~20 X-ray binaries (XRBs), five supernova remnants and seven very soft sources (including two good candidate supersoft sources) associated with NGC 55. We also detect an X-ray source coincident with a previously identified globular cluster in NGC 55.

- Description:
- The following tables describe the results of a survey for X-ray (0.3-3 keV) sources in the young (30Myr) NGC 2547 open cluster using the XMM-Newton EPIC instrument. Table 1 lists the details of X-ray sources which are correlated with optical cluster members. Table 2 catalogues the cross-identifications with optical catalogues for the sources in Table 1 and derives their X-ray luminosities and X-ray to bolometric flux ratios. Table 3 lists the X-ray properties of sources which are uncorrelated with cluster members. Table 7 lists the correlations between cluster members detected by XMM-Newton and those detected 7 years earlier by the ROSAT HRI instrument, along with the X-ray luminosities and flux ratios as determined by the HRI.

- Description:
- Galactic globular clusters harbour binary systems that are detected as faint X-ray sources. These close binaries are thought to play an important role in the stability of the clusters by liberating energy and delaying the inevitable core collapse of globular clusters. The inventory of close binaries and their identification is therefore essential. We present XMM-Newton observations of two Galactic globular clusters: NGC 2808 and NGC 4372. We use X-ray spectral and variability analysis combined with ultra-violet observations made with the XMM-Newton optical monitor and published data from the Hubble Space Telescope to identify sources associated with the clusters. We compare the results of our observations with estimates from population synthesis models.

- Description:
- We present the characteristics of the X-ray variability of stars in the cluster NGC 2516 as derived from XMM-Newton/EPIC/pn data. The X-ray variations on short (hours), medium (months), and long (years) time scales have been explored. We detected 303 distinct X-ray sources by analysing six EPIC/pn observations; 194 of them are members of the cluster. Stars of all spectral types, from the early-types to the late-M dwarfs, were detected.

- Description:
- We present the results of an XMM-Newton observation of the young (~2-4Myr) cluster around the hot star sigma Orionis. In a previous paper (Sanz-Forcada et al., 2004A&A...421..715S) we presented the analysis of the RGS spectrum of the central hot star; here we discuss the results of the analysis of the full EPIC field. We have detected 175 X-ray sources, 88 of which have been identified with cluster members, including very low-mass stars down to the substellar limit. We detected eleven new possible candidate members from the 2MASS (Cat. <II/246>) catalogue.

- Description:
- The Lockman Hole represents the sky area of lowest Galactic line-of-sight columns density. It was observed by the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory in 18 pointings performed between April 2000 and December 2002. The total exposure time spent on the field was 1.16Ms (EPIC pn detector; EPIC MOS detector: 1.30 Ms). The effective exposure after removal of times of high particle background is 637ks (EPIC pn detector; EPIC MOS detector: 765ks). The catalogue lists positions, count rates, fluxes, hardness ratios, and partial optical classifications of 409 X-ray point sources detected in the central 0.196{deg}2 of the field down to a detection likelihood threshold of 10 (3.9sigma). The analysis was performed using the XMM-Newton SAS data analysis package version 6.0.

- Description:
- X-rays are a powerful probe of activity in early stages of star formation. They allow us to identify young stars even after they have lost the IR signatures of circumstellar disks and provide constraints on their distance. Here, we report on XMM-Newton observations that detect 121 young stellar objects (YSOs) in two fields between L1641S and {kappa} Ori. These observations extend the Survey of Orion A with XMM and Spitzer (SOXS). The YSOs are contained in a ring of gas and dust apparent at millimeter wavelengths, and in far-IR and near-IR surveys. The X-ray luminosity function of the YSOs detected in the two fields indicates a distance of 250-280pc, much closer than the Orion A cloud and similar to distance estimates of {kappa} Ori. We propose that the ring is a 5-8pc diameter shell that has been swept up by {kappa} Ori. This ring contains several groups of stars detected by Spitzer and WISE including one surrounding the Herbig Ae/Be stars V1818 Ori. In this interpretation, the {kappa} Ori ring is one of several shells swept up by massive stars within the Orion Eridanus Superbubble and is unrelated to the southern portion of OrionA/L1641S.

- Description:
- The XMM-Newton X-ray observatory has performed repeated observations of the CDFS in 33 epochs (2001-2010) through the XMM-CDFS Deep Survey. During the X-ray observations, XMM-OM targeted the central 17x17arcmin^2^ region of the X-ray field of view, providing simultaneous optical/UV coverage of the CDFS. The resulting set of data can be taken into account to build an XMM-OM catalogue of the CDFS, filling the UV spectral coverage between the optical surveys and GALEX observations. We present the UV catalogue of the XMM-CDFS Deep Survey. Its main purpose is to provide complementary UV average photometric measurements of known optical/UV sources in the CDFS, taking advantage of the unique characteristics of the survey. The data reduction is intended also to improve the standard source detection on individual observations, by cataloguing faint sources through the stacking of their exposure images. We reprocessed the XMM-OM data of the survey and we stacked the exposures from consecutive observations using the standard SAS tools to process the data obtained during single observations. Average measurements of detections with SAS good quality flags from individual observations and from stacked images have been joined to compile the catalogue. Sources have been validated through the cross-identification within the EIS and COMBO-17 surveys. Photometric data of 1129 CDFS sources are provided into the catalogue, and optical/UV/X-ray photometric and spectroscopic information from other surveys are also included. The stacking extends the detection limits by ~1 mag in the three UV bands, contributing 30% of the catalogued UV sources. The comparison with the available measurements in similar spectral bands confirms the validity of the XMM-OM calibration. The combined COMBO-17/X-ray classification of the "intermediate" sources (e.g. optically diluted and/or X-ray absorbed AGN) is also discussed.
