Mapping the circumnuclear regions of the Circinus galaxy with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer
F. Ursini, A. Marinucci, G. Matt +94
We report on the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observation of the closest and X-ray brightest Compton-thick active galactic nucleus (AGN), the Circinus galaxy. We find…
The X-ray emission of the Seyfert 2 galaxy MCG-01-24-12
R. Middei, G. A. Matzeu, S. Bianchi +7
We present a detailed X-ray spectral analysis of the nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy MCG-01-24-12 based on a multi-epoch data set. Data have been taken with different X-ray satellites, nam…
A possible sub-kiloparsec dual AGN buried behind the galaxy curtain
P. Severgnini, V. Braito, C. Cicone +11
Although thousands of galaxy mergers are known, only a handful of sub-kiloparsec-scale supermassive black hole (SMBH) pairs have been confirmed so far, leaving a huge gap between t…
Unveiling sub-parsec supermassive black hole binary candidates in active galactic nuclei
Roberto Serafinelli, Paola Severgnini, Valentina Braito +11
Elusive supermassive black hole binaries (SMBHBs) are thought to be the penultimate stage of galaxy mergers, preceding a final coalescence phase. SMBHBs are sources of continuous g…
Probing the circumnuclear absorbing medium of the buried AGN in NGC 1068 through NuSTAR observations
A. Zaino, S. Bianchi, A. Marinucci +9
We present the results of the latest NuSTAR monitoring campaign of the Compton-thick Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, composed of four 50 ks observations performed between July 201…
A broadband X-ray view of the NLSy1 1E 0754.6+392.8
R. Middei, F. Tombesi, F. Vagnetti +8
The soft X-ray band of many active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is affected by obscuration due to partially ionised matter crossing our line of sight. In this context, two past XMM-Newto…
The X-ray Polarization Probe mission concept
Keith Jahoda, Henric Krawczynski, Fabian Kislat +100
The X-ray Polarization Probe (XPP) is a second generation X-ray polarimeter following up on the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE). The XPP will offer true broadband polarim…
