TL;DR: The Swift mission as discussed by the authors is a multi-wavelength observatory for gamma-ray burst (GRB) astronomy, which is a first-of-its-kind autonomous rapid-slewing satellite for transient astronomy and pioneers the way for future rapid-reaction and multiwavelength missions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented point-source catalogs for the 2Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field North, currently the deepest X-ray observation of the universe in the 0.5?8.0 keV band.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Advanced CCD imaging spectrometer (ACIS) instrument on the Chandra X-ray Observatory
TL;DR: The ACIS instrument has been operating for three years in orbit, producing high quality scientific data on a wide variety of X-ray emitting astronomical objects, except for a brief period at the very beginning of the mission when the CCDs were exposed to the radiation environment of the Outer van Allen Belts which resulted in substantial radiation damage to the front illuminated CCD.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained the first high-spatial-resolution (~1 arcsec), hard X-ray (0.5-7 keV) image of the central 40 pc (17 arcmin) of the Milky Way Galaxy and have discovered an Xray source, CXOGC J174540.
Journal ArticleDOI
