We present the latest results from the Chandra survey/monitoring program of M31. We will present spectral and timing information on the point sources, including the nuclear source which may be associated with the central supermassive black hole. There are more than 120 point sources (including 18 globular clusters) detected in the central region

The Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey is a project to identify a large sample of serendipitous X-ray sources located to arcsec precision in deep (≳ 30 ksec) galactic fields (b ~ 10 degree) imaged by the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Our primary goal is to identify Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) and quiescent Low Mass X-ray Binaries

Deep narrow band CCD images in the Hα , [O Iii] lambda5007 Ä, [N Ii] lambda6584 Ä, and [S Ii] lambda6717 +31 Ä emission lines have been obtained for the planetary nebula M 2-48. The discovery of a pair of symmetric low-excitation bow-shocks, separated by 4', and forming a highly collimated bipolar outflow, is presented. The bow-shocks are emitting

SAX J1819.3-2525 is a nearby X-ray transient which exhibited a fast and large X-ray outburst on Sep. 15, 1999 (Smith et al. 1999). The Wide Field Cameras and the Narrow Field Instruments (NFI) on board BeppoSAX observed SAX J1819.3-2525 at various stages of its activity before that, in the spring and fall of 1999. The fluxes range between 0.012 and

We present time-series spectropolarimetric observations of sunspots in the Ca II infrared triplet lines, which show a periodic occurrence of anomalous, asymmetric, circular polarization profiles in the umbral chromosphere. The profiles may be caused by the periodic development of an unresolved atmospheric component in a downward flowing magnetized
