GRB970402 is the fourth gamma-ray burst detected by BeppoSAX simultaneously in the Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GRBM) and one of the two Wide Field Cameras (WFCs). A rapid pointing of the BeppoSAX Narrow Field Instruments (NFIs) 8 hours after the GRB led to the identification of an unknown weak X-ray source: 1SAX J1450.1-6920. Its position was approximately at the center of the 3 arcmin error circle derived from the WFC image. Both the Medium Energy (MECS, 2-10 keV) and Low Energy (LECS, 0.1-10 keV) concentrators detected the source. A follow-up observation performed 1.5 days later and lasting 54 ks showed that the source had faded almost to, but not below the detectability threshold. The flux decrease between the two observations was a factor ~= 2.5. 1SAX J1450.1-6920 was the second X-ray afterglow associated with a GRB. Searches promptly started at other wavelengths (optical, IR, radio) did not reveal any transient event within the 3 arcmin error circle.
We summarize the results of BeppoSAX ToO observation of blazars that were known to be in a high state from observations carried out in the optical or X-ray or TeV bands.In some of the observed sources, two spectral components were detected, which are
We report on BeppoSAX broad band (0.1-100 keV) observations of bright Seyfert 2 galaxies and discuss the results in the framework of the unified theory of AGNs. The data are used to probe Nh distribution in type 2 objects and to identify heavily abso
We present two BeppoSAX observations of BL Lac (2200+420) as part of a multiwavelength campaign performed in 2000. The source was in different states of activity: in June, the X-ray spectrum was faint and hard (alpha sim 0.8), with positive residuals
We present the X-ray afterglow catalog of BeppoSAX from the launch of the satellite to the end of the mission. Thirty-three X-ray afterglows were securely identified based on their fading behavior out of 39 observations. We have extracted the continu
We present new BeppoSAX LECS and MECS observations, covering the energy range 0.1 - 10 keV (observers frame), of four BL Lacertae objects selected from the 1 Jy sample. All sources display a flat (alpha_x ~ 0.7) X-ray spectrum, which we interpret as
