PEARLS: NuSTAR and XMM-Newton Extragalactic Survey of the JWST North Ecliptic Pole Time-Domain Field IV: X-Ray Variability Analysis
Ross Silver, Francesca Civano, Xiurui Zhao +31
NuSTAR and XMM-Newton have observed the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) Time-Domain Field (TDF) for almost five contiguous years starting in 2019. In th…
Characterizing the Gamma-ray Emission from Low-Luminosity AGN
Chris Karwin, Nikita Khatiya, Margot Boughelilba +3
A majority of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the local Universe are classified as low-luminosity AGN (LLAGN), having bolometric luminosities $\lesssim 10^{42} \ \mathrm{erg \…
PACHA: Probing AGN Coronae with High-redshift AGN
Xiurui Zhao, Elias Kammoun, Marco Ajello +18
The X-ray emission of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is generally attributed to inverse Compton scattering of accretion-disk photons by hot electrons in a compact corona. In local AG…
Transient Relativistic Iron Emission Line from an X-ray Flaring Supermassive Black Hole
Xiurui Zhao, Marco Ajello, Francesca Civano +16
We report the discovery of the first transient relativistic iron Kα line in an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) J1047+5907. The line was detected 21.5 days (rest-frame) after an X-ray…
Fast X-ray Variability from the Coronae of Supermassive Black Holes
Xiurui Zhao, Luca Comisso, Stefano Marchesi +4
We present the first systematic study of short-timescale X-ray variability in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei (AGN), utilizing archival Chandra observations of approximately 3,0…
The Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) Community Science Book
Michael Koss, Nafisa Aftab, Steven W. Allen +395
The AXIS Community Science Book represents the collective effort of 592 scientists worldwide to define the transformative science enabled by the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (A…
The Distribution of Hard X-ray Selected AGN in the NEP Field
Samantha Creech, Francesca Civano, Daniel R. Wik +9
X-ray surveys are one of the most unbiased methods for detecting Compton Thick (CT; cm) AGN, which are thought to comprise up to of AGN…
PEARLS: NuSTAR and XMM-Newton Extragalactic Survey of the JWST North Ecliptic Pole Time-domain Field III
Ross Silver, Francesca Civano, Xiurui Zhao +28
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) Time-Domain Field (TDF) has been monitored by NuSTAR and XMM-Newton with a regular cadence for five years starting i…
Unveiling Obscured Accretion in the Local Universe
Indrani Pal, Stefano Marchesi, Ross Silver +9
Heavily obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), especially Compton-thick sources with line-of-sight column density () 10 cm, are critical to underst…
Contemporaneous X-ray and Optical Polarization of EHSP Blazar H 1426+428
Anuvab Banerjee, Akash Garg, Divya Rawat +17
We present the first contemporaneous X-ray and optical polarimetric measurement of the extremely high synchrotron peaked (EHSP) blazar H 1426+428. The X-ray polarimetric observatio…
Chandra Follow-up Observations of Swift-BAT-selected AGNs III
Isaiah S. Cox, Núria Torres-Albà, Stefano Marchesi +5
The cosmic X-ray background (CXB) is dominated by the obscured and unobscured coronal light of active galactic nuclei (AGN). At energies below 10 keV, the CXB can be well explained…
PEARLS: NuSTAR and XMM-Newton Extragalactic Survey of the JWST North Ecliptic Pole Time-Domain Field II
Xiurui Zhao, Francesca Civano, Christopher N. A. Willmer +30
We present the second NuSTAR and XMM-Newton extragalactic survey of the JWST North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) Time-Domain Field (TDF). The first NuSTAR NEP-TDF survey (Zhao et al. 2021) h…
Characterizing the -ray Emission from FR0 Radio Galaxies
Nikita S. Khatiya, Margot Boughelilba, Christopher M. Karwin +5
FR0 galaxies constitute the most abundant jet population in the local Universe. With their compact jet structure, they are broadband photon emitters and have been proposed as multi…
