XRISM Spectroscopy of Variable Accretion-driven Disk Winds in NGC 4151: When, Where, and How Fast Outflows are Launched
Xin Xiang, Jon Miller, Missagh Mehdipour +12
X-ray observations probe the inner accretion flow within active galactic nuclei, revealing the highest gas column densities and fastest winds. The most diverse winds yet revealed w…
Dissecting the Nuclear Structure of NGC 5548 with XRISM. I. Physical Properties of the Highly Ionized Outflows
Missagh Mehdipour, Jon M. Miller, Jelle S. Kaastra +21
We present a detailed spectral analysis of an X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) observation of the prototypical Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548. XRISM's Resolve microcalorim…
Observation of A Solar Like Magnetic Reconnection Event in an AGN Corona with XRISM
Gal Vardi, Ehud Behar, Liyi Gu +14
The authors present the first direct observation of a magnetic reconnection flare in the X‑ray corona of the active galaxy NGC 3783, using XRISM and XMM‑Newton data that reveal a N…
Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays: SUBWAYS IV. Tracing Radio Emission and Unveiling the Role of Winds
E. Amenta, M. Brienza, G. Bruni +30
Most Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are Radio Quiet, with radio emission that may arise from star-formation activity, AGN-driven winds, weak jets, and coronal activity. Disentangling…
The SKA-VLBI Perspective on Radio-Quiet AGN
Francesca Panessa, Tao An, James Petley +21
The accretion-ejection mechanism in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) remains a central open problem in astrophysics, tied to the role of AGN feedback in galaxy formation and evolution.…
Reverberation in the Narrow Fe K Line in the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 4151 with XRISM
Jon M. Miller, Aberahmen Zoghbi, Xin Xiang +11
Emission lines that "echo" variations in the ionizing flux produced close to black holes are powerful probes of the central engine. In the Seyfert-1.5 galaxy NGC 4151, high-resolut…
