eROSITA

Astrophysicists analyzed the data from three X-ray observatories to get the most detailed map of Perseus cluster.

Scientists from Russian consortium of SRG/eROSITA telescope carried out the most detailed study of W50 nebula with SS433 binary system. The paper presenting the results of the study was published in Astronomy&Astrophysics.

January 13, 2026 Spektr-RG observatory marked 6.5 years since the day of its launch, which is also its guaranteed operational time. Today the observatory has successfully completed its nominal mission and continues studying the Universe in hard X-ray range.

The conference started at IKI on 22 December 2025.

The award ceremony took place on November 7, 2025.

The team of astrophysicists from IKI and other organizations used X-ray data collected by SRG/eROSITA telescope onboard Spektr-RG observatory to look into the hot interior of the S147/Spaghetti nebula and explain its unusual properties.

New model developed by IKI astrophysicists and their colleagues and based on the data of SRG/eROSITA X-ray telescope, links the bright structure seen in our Galaxy to bubbles of hot gas that emerge from star-formation regions like smoke from the chimney.

On July 13, 2019, Proton rocket launcher with DM-03 booster blasted off from Baikonur cosmodrome, carrying Russian X-ray observatory Spektr-RG. Today, we name some — but by no means the only — fascinating results of its work in these five years.
