Highlights from the KVANT mission

The International X-ray observatory RÖNTGEN, aboard the KVANT module docked to the MIR space station, performed already more than 1000 sessions of observations of HER X-1, CYG X-1, CYG X-3, NGC 4151, CEN A, 3C 273, ASM 2000+25 and some other sources. The main target was SN1987a and the Large Magella...

Zusammenfassung:	The International X-ray observatory RÖNTGEN, aboard the KVANT module docked to the MIR space station, performed already more than 1000 sessions of observations of HER X-1, CYG X-1, CYG X-3, NGC 4151, CEN A, 3C 273, ASM 2000+25 and some other sources. The main target was SN1987a and the Large Magellanic Cloud field. Some results of observations (hard X-ray spectra, X-ray imaging and timing) are presented.
