Constraining global parameters of accreting black holes by modeling magnetic flares

R. W. Goosmann, M. Mouchet, M. Dovciak +3

We present modeling results for the reprocessed radiation expected from magnetic flares above AGN accretion disks. Relativistic corrections for the orbital motion of the flare and…

Modeling the X-ray fractional variability spectrum of Active Galactic Nuclei using multiple flares

R. W. Goosmann, M. Dovciak, V. Karas +3

Using Monte-Carlo simulations of X-ray flare distributions across the accretion disk of active galactic nuclei (AGN), we obtain modeling results for the energy-dependent fractional…

Modeling the Polarization of Dusty Scattering Cones in Active Galactic Nuclei

Rene W. Goosmann, C. Martin Gaskell, M. Shoji

We have used the STOKES radiative transfer code, to model polarization induced by dust scattering in the polar regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). We discuss the wavelength-de…

On the origin of the broad, relativistic iron line of MCG-6-30-15 observed by XMM-Newton

Andrea Martocchia, Giorgio Matt, Vladimir Karas

The relativistic iron line profile recently observed by XMM-Newton in the spectrum of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG--6-30-15 (Wilms et al., 2001) is discussed in the framework of the la…

Gamma Ray Bursts versus OB Associations: do they trigger star formation?

Yu. N. Efremov, S. Ehlerova, J. Palous

We discuss differences in shapes, expansion velocities and fragmentation times of structures created by an energy deposition from a single Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) or an OB associatio…
