Can someone explain what are those assemplies?

Their are so-called dynamic assemblies, generated in memory for different purposes. Example, common usage are:

• XML serializers used by XmlSerializer for concrete types,
• XSLT compiled queries,
• ASPX pages in case of ASP.NET

You can also create your own dynamic assemblies with use of Reflection.
