Inner accretion disk disappearance during a radio flare in GRS 1915+105
M. Feroci, G. Matt, G. Pooley +3
Simultaneous X-ray (BeppoSAX, 0.1-300 keV) and radio (Ryle Telescope, 15 GHz) observations of the superluminal galactic source GRS 1915+105 in high flux state were carried out star…
BeppoSAX observations of Mkn 3: Piercing through the torus of a Seyfert 2 galaxy
M. Cappi, L. Bassani, A. Comastri +15
A new BeppoSAX broad-band (0.6-150 keV) spectrum of the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mkn 3 is presented. The spectrum provides a direct measurement of a large, neutral column of gas with Nh~10…
One more surprise from the Circinus Galaxy: BeppoSAX discovery of a transmission component in hard X-rays
G. Matt, M. Guainazzi, R. Maiolino +11
The Circinus Galaxy has been observed, for the first time above 10 keV, by BeppoSAX. An excess emission above the extrapolation of the best fit 0.1--10 keV spectrum is apparent in…
BeppoSAX observations of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxies:I. Ton S 180
A. Comastri, F. Fiore, M. Guainazzi +10
We report on the first spectrum up to 10 keV of the bright narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Ton S 180, obtained with the imaging instruments onboard BeppoSAX. This is the first observe…
X-ray detections of weak Seyfert2's with BeppoSAX
M. Salvati, L. Bassani, R. Della Ceca +3
We report the detection in the X rays of two weak Seyfert2's (NGC3393 and NGC4941) with the Italian-Dutch satellite BeppoSAX. These are among the first sources observed in a sample…
