Title: SRG Orbital Observatory: Map of the entire Sky in X-Rays and its variability over time.
Abstract: SRG X-ray Orbital Observatory was launched to the second Lagrange point of the Sun-Earth system (1.5 million km from the Earth) on July 13th, 2019. It constructed four full maps of the sky and detected in X-rays more than 2 millions quasars, 40 thousand clusters of galaxies, half a million of stars with hot coronae, supernovae remnants, accreting neutron stars and stellar mass black holes in our Galaxy.
Many X-ray sources demonstrate strong variability. For example we detected already more than 50 TDEs (Events of the Tidal Disruption of the stars in vicinity of supermassive black holes in the centres of distant galaxies).
