The Soft-Excess in Mrk 509: Warm Corona or Relativistic Reflection?

Javier A. Garcia, Erin Kara, Dominic Walton +15

We present the analysis of the first NuSTAR observations ( ks), simultaneous with the last SUZAKU observations ( ks), of the active galactic nucleus of the brigh…

K2 Observations of SN 2018oh Reveal a Two-Component Rising Light Curve for a Type Ia Supernova

G. Dimitriadis, R. J. Foley, A. Rest +145

We present an exquisite, 30-min cadence Kepler (K2) light curve of the Type Ia supernova (SN Ia) 2018oh (ASASSN-18bt), starting weeks before explosion, covering the moment of explo…

A study of X-ray emission of galaxies hosting molecular outflows (MOX sample)

Sibasish Laha, Matteo Guainazzi, Enrico Piconcelli +5

We have carried out an extensive X-ray spectral analysis of a sample of galaxies exhibiting molecular outflows (MOX sample), to characterize the X-ray properties and investigate th…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- XII. The relation between coronal properties of Active Galactic Nuclei and the Eddington ratio

C. Ricci, L. C. Ho, A. C. Fabian +12

The bulk of the X-ray emission in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is produced very close to the accreting supermassive black hole (SMBH), in a corona of hot electrons which up scatter…

NuSTAR observations of Mrk 766: distinguishing reflection from absorption

D. J. K. Buisson, M. L. Parker, E. Kara +14

We present two new NuSTAR observations of the narrow line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy Mrk 766 and give constraints on the two scenarios previously proposed to explain its spectrum and…

The hyperluminous Compton-thick quasar nucleus of the hot DOG W1835+4355 observed by NuSTAR

L. Zappacosta, E. Piconcelli, F. Duras +11

We present a 155ks NuSTAR observation of the hot dust-obscured galaxy (hot DOG) W1835+4355. We extracted spectra from the two NuSTAR detectors and analyzed them jointly wi…

Broadband X-ray Spectral Analysis of the Double-Nucleus Luminous Infrared Galaxy Mrk 463

Satoshi Yamada, Yoshihiro Ueda, Saeko Oda +4

We present a broadband (0.4-70 keV) X-ray spectral analysis of the luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) system Mrk 463 observed with Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR), Chan…

New Spectral Model for Constraining Torus Covering Factors from Broadband X-ray Spectra of Active Galactic Nuclei

M. Baloković, M. Brightman, F. A. Harrison +6

The basic unified model of active galactic nuclei (AGN) invokes an anisotropic obscuring structure, usually referred to as a torus, to explain AGN obscuration as an angle-dependent…

The NuSTAR Extragalactic Surveys: X-ray spectroscopic analysis of the bright hard-band selected sample

L. Zappacosta, A. Comastri, F. Civano +23

We discuss the spectral analysis of a sample of 63 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) detected above a limiting flux of keV erg/s/cm in the multi-tiered N…

Suzaku Observations of Heavily Obscured (Compton-thick) Active Galactic Nuclei selected by Swift/BAT Hard X-ray Survey

Atsushi Tanimoto, Yoshihiro Ueda, Taiki Kawamuro +3

We present a uniform broadband X-ray (0.5-100.0 keV) spectral analysis of 12 Swift/Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) selected Compton-thick ($\log N_{\mathrm{H}}/\mathrm{cm}^{-2} \geq 24…
