The X-ray-to-UV relation does not evolve in homogeneous quasar samples
G. Risaliti, E. Lusso, E. Nardini +6
We present a new, highly homogeneous quasar sample with X-ray and UV observations optimized to reliably estimate distances via the non-linear X-ray-to-UV relation. Cross-matching t…
Directly tracking the re-brightening of a supermassive black hole accretion disk
R. Middei, E. Nardini, C. Done +12
Accretion onto supermassive black holes powers the most luminous persistent sources in the Universe, the so-called active galactic nuclei, whose emission is characterized by two di…
A XRISM view of the iron line complex in NGC 1068: Rethinking the prototypical Compton-thick AGN
S. Bianchi, B. Vander Meulen, E. Bertola +32
We analyze a XRISM/Resolve observation of NGC1068, focusing on the Fe K and Fe K fluorescent lines and on the Fe XXV and Fe XXVI emission complexes. Line centroid energies,…
Tracking down the broadband polarimetric properties of PG 1553+113
Riccardo Middei, Svetlana G. Jorstad, Alan P. Marscher +78
We report on a nine-month monitoring campaign of the blazar PG 1553+113, relying on three observations carried out in 2025 with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) and su…
Is XRISM/Resolve probing a "raining" absorber in Mrk 509?
M. Dadina, V. Missaglia, V. Braito +19
X-ray spectroscopy of AGN offers unique insights into the reprocessing of radiationand gas dynamics near SMBH. The Sey 1 galaxy Mrk 509 is an ideal laboratory for these studies sin…
Ultra-thick warm absorbers: Enlarging the parameter space of AGN ionised outflows
R. Middei, E. Piconcelli, E. Nardini +9
The analysis of X-ray absorption features in active galactic nuclei (AGN) provides a wealth of information about the physical properties of the matter surrounding supermassive blac…
