The ASTRO-H X-ray Astronomy Satellite
Tadayuki Takahashi, Kazuhisa Mitsuda, Richard Kelley +250
The joint JAXA/NASA ASTRO-H mission is the sixth in a series of highly successful X-ray missions developed by the Institute of Space and Astronautical Science (ISAS), with a planne…
NuSTAR Spectroscopy of Multi-Component X-ray Reflection from NGC 1068
Franz E. Bauer, Patricia Arevalo, Dominic J. Walton +26
We report on observations of NGC1068 with NuSTAR, which provide the best constraints to date on its ~keV spectral shape. We find no strong variability over the past two decade…
The origin of ultra-fast outflows in AGN: Monte-Carlo simulations of the wind in PDS 456
Kouichi Hagino, Hirokazu Odaka, Chris Done +4
Ultra-fast outflows (UFOs) are seen in many AGN, giving a possible mode for AGN feedback onto the host galaxy. However, the mechanism(s) for the launch and acceleration of these ou…
Resolving the Clumpy Structure of the Outflow Winds in the Gravitationally Lensed Quasar SDSS J1029+2623
Toru Misawa, Naohisa Inada, Masamune Oguri +4
We study the geometry and the internal structure of the outflowing wind from the accretion disk of a quasar by observing multiple sightlines with the aid of strong gravitational le…
Discovery of Dramatic Optical Variability in SDSS J1100+4421: A Peculiar Radio-Loud Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy?
Masaomi Tanaka, Tomoki Morokuma, Ryosuke Itoh +55
We present our discovery of dramatic variability in SDSS J1100+4421 by the high-cadence transient survey Kiso Supernova Survey (KISS). The source brightened in the optical by at le…
NuSTAR Reveals the Comptonizing Corona of the Broad-Line Radio Galaxy 3C 382
D. R. Ballantyne, J. M. Bollenbacher, L. W. Brenneman +14
Broad-line radio galaxies (BLRGs) are active galactic nuclei that produce powerful, large-scale radio jets, but appear as Seyfert 1 galaxies in their optical spectra. In the X-ray…
