We present the results of the analysis of three XMM-Newton observations of the Willman 1 dwarf spheroidal galaxy (Wil 1). X-ray sources are classified on the basis of spectral analysis, hardness ratios, X-ray-to-optical flux ratio, X-ray variability, plus cross-correlation with available catalogues in optical and infrared wavelengths. We catalogued 97 sources in the field of Wil 1. Our classification shows the presence of a $beta$-type symbiotic star in Wil 1. We classified one M dwarf foreground star in the field of Wil 1. Moreover, fifty-four sources are classified as background AGNs and galaxies. Our study shows that the luminosity of the X-ray sources of Wil 1 does not exceed $sim$10$^{34}$ erg s$^{-1}$ in the energy range of 0.2--12.0 keV, which is similar to observed luminosities of sources in nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxies.

We present the spectral analysis of an 87~ks emph{XMM-Newton} observation of Draco, a nearby dwarf spheroidal galaxy. Of the approximately 35 robust X-ray source detections, we focus our attention on the brightest of these sources, for which we repor
t X-ray and multiwavelength parameters. While most of the sources exhibit properties consistent with AGN, few of them possess characteristics of LMXBs and CVs. Our analysis puts constraints on population of X-ray sources with $L_X>3times10^{33}$~erg~s$^{-1}$ in Draco suggesting that there are no actively accreting BH and NS binaries. However, we find 4 sources that could be LMXBs/CVs in quiescent state associated with Draco. We also place constraints on the central black hole luminosity and on a dark matter decay signal around 3.5~keV.
We present an unprecedented, deep study of the primordial low-mass X-ray binary population in an isolated, lower-metallicity environment. We perform followup observations of previously-identified X-ray binary candidates in the Sculptor Dwarf Galaxy b
y combining a second Chandra observation with Spitzer and Gemini photometry, as well as Gemini spectroscopy of selected targets. Of the original nine bright X-ray sources identified, we are able to classify all but one as quasars, active galactic nuclei, or background galaxies. We further discover four new X-ray sources in the second-epoch Chandra observation. Three of these new sources are background sources and one is a foreground flaring star. We have found that Sculptor is effectively devoid of X-ray sources above a few 1e34 erg/s. If Sculptor is able to retain primordial binaries at a similar rate to globular clusters, this implies that bright X-ray binaries observed in globular clusters in the present epoch are all formed dynamically.
We briefly report on an on-going spectroscopic study of hard X-ray sources selected serendipitously in 12 XMM-Newton fields. Results for the analysis of the 41 sources from the first seven EPIC observations have been discussed in a previous paper (Pi
concelli et al. 2002, Paper I) where we found an absolute fraction of X-ray absorbed sources (~30%) lower than expected (~50%) by the predictions of popular CXB synthesis models at F(2-10)~5x10**(-14) erg cm**-2 s**-1. We present here the preliminary results concerning the whole sample including five new deeper XMM-Newton measurements increasing the sample to 90 sources. Even if still on-going, the present study appears to confirm and extend down to F(2-10)~10**(-14) erg cm**-2 s**-1 the above mismatch between observational data and theoretical expectations regarding the fraction of absorbed sources. Furthermore the sample average spectral index of 1.5-1.6 is steeper than the CXB slope indicating that the majority of obscured sources making the bulk of the CXB resides at even lower hard X-ray fluxes.
A previous study of the X-ray luminosity function of the X-ray sources in the field of the Draco dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy indicated the presence of a population of unknown X-ray sources in the soft energy range of 0.5-2 keV. In 2015, Draco dSph
was observed again in twenty-six deep XMM-Newton, observations providing an opportunity for a new study of the yet unclassified sources. We apply the classification criteria presented in our previous multi-wavelength study of the X-ray sources of the Draco dSph to the sources detected in the combined 2009 and 2015 XMM-Newton data set. These criteria are based on X-ray studies and properties of the optical, near-infrared, and mid-infrared counterparts and allows us to distinguish background active galactic nuclei~(AGNs) and galaxies from other types of X-ray sources. We present the classification of X-ray sources, for which the counterpart is identified as a stellar object based on our criteria from multi-wavelength data. We identify three new symbiotic stars in the Draco dSph with X-ray luminosities between $sim$3.5$times10^{34}$ erg s$^{-1}$ and 5.5$times10^{34}$ erg s$^{-1}$. The X-ray spectral analysis shows that two of the classified symbiotic stars are $beta$-type. This is the first identification of this class of symbiotic stars in a nearby galaxy. Eight sources are classified as Galactic M dwarfs in the field of the Draco dSph. The distances of these M dwarfs are between$sim$140-800 pc, their X-ray luminosities are between $10^{28}-10^{29}$ erg s$^{-1}$ and the logarithmic ratio of X-ray to bolometric luminosity, log$(frac{L_text{X}}{L_text{bol}})$, is between $-3.4$ to $-2.1$. The multiple observations allowed us to investigate flare activity of the M dwarfs. Moreover, we classified three foreground sources, located at distances of the order of $sim$1-3 kpc in the field of the Draco dSph.
In this work we present the results of the survey carried out on one of the deepest X-ray fields observed by the XMM-Newton satellite. The 1.75 Ms Ultra Narrow Deep Field (XMM175UNDF) survey is made by 13 observations taken over 2 years with a total
exposure time of 1.75 Ms (1.372 Ms after flare-filtered) in a field of $30 times 30 $ centered around the blazar 1ES 1553+113. We stacked the 13 observations reaching flux limits of $4.03 times 10^{-16} $, $1.3 times 10^{-15}$, and $9.8 times 10^{-16}, erg, s^{-1}, cm^{-2}$ in the soft $(0.2 - 2, mathrm{keV})$, hard $(2 - 12, mathrm{keV})$, and full $(0.2 - 12, mathrm{keV})$ bands, respectively. Using a conservative threshold of Maximum Likelihood significance of $ML geq 6$, corresponding to $3sigma$, we detected 301 point-sources for which we derived positions, fluxes in different bands, and hardness ratios. Thanks to an optical follow-up carried out using the 10.4m the Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) on the same field in the $ugriz$ bands, combined with WISE/2MASS IR data; we identified 244 optical/IR counterpart candidates for our X-ray sources and estimated their X-ray luminosities, redshift distribution, X-ray/optical $-$ X-ray/IR flux ratios, and absolute magnitudes. Finally, we divided this subsample in 40 non-active sources and 204 AGNs, of which 139 are classified as Seyfert galaxies and 41 as Quasars.
