Research Areas

 

In the present page we present a brief description of several research projects performed of the past decade at Skinakas Observatory. For a number of these projects, such as the study of Ative Galactic Nuclei, additional coordinated observations in X-rays were also used. The Skinakas Observatory uses a significant percentage of the observing time for simultaneous observations with X-ray space observatories such as ASCA, RXTE, XMM-Newton and Chandra.

Active Galactic Nuclei

Supernova Remnants

Spiral galaxies

Planetary Nebulae

Star clusters

X-ray binaries
