X-ray Absorption Variability in NGC 1142: Another Constraint on the Nature of the Torus/Broad-Line Region in Active Galactic Nuclei

Isaiah S. Cox, Núria Torres-Albà, Stefano Marchesi +5

The physics, geometry, and kinematics of the gas and dust surrounding the central engine of active galactic nuclei (AGN) are not well understood. In some sources, this material obs…

The hidden variability of the torus in local Active Galactic Nuclei: 20 years of Chandra, XMM-Newton, and NuSTAR observations

Vittoria Elvezia Gianolli, Nuria Torres-Alba, Stefano Marchesi +9

X-ray absorption variability in active galactic nuclei (AGN) provides key constraints on the structure and dynamics of the circumnuclear obscuring medium, the so-called torus. A fr…

Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays: SUBWAYS IV. Tracing Radio Emission and Unveiling the Role of Winds

E. Amenta, M. Brienza, G. Bruni +30

Most Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are Radio Quiet, with radio emission that may arise from star-formation activity, AGN-driven winds, weak jets, and coronal activity. Disentangling…

Compton-thick AGN in the NuSTAR Era. XI. Analyzing 11 CT-AGN Candidates Selected with Machine Learning

Ross Silver, Nuria Torres-Alba, Stefano Marchesi +8

This work discusses the broadband X-ray spectral analysis of 11 candidate heavily-obscured active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected based on their infrared and X-ray properties by a r…

A systematic search for AGN obscuration variability in the Chandra archive

Isaiah S. Cox, Núria Torres-Albà, Stefano Marchesi +5

The nature of the obscuring material in active galactic nuclei (AGN) can be studied by measuring changes in the line-of-sight column density, , over time. This can b…

Unobscured radio-quiet Active Galactic Nuclei under the eyes of IXPE

V. E. Gianolli, S. Bianchi, P-O. Petrucci +8

We present the results of the X-ray polarimetric analyses performed on unobscured radio-quiet Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE), with…

Supermassive Black Hole Winds in X-rays -- SUBWAYS. III. A population study on ultra-fast outflows

V. E. Gianolli, S. Bianchi, P-O Petrucci +44

The detection of blue-shifted absorption lines likely associated with ionized Iron K-shell transitions in the X-ray spectra of many Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) suggests the presen…

Uncovering the geometry of the hot X-ray corona in the Seyfert galaxy NGC4151 with IXPE

V. E. Gianolli, D. E. Kim, S. Bianchi +106

We present an X-ray spectro-polarimetric analysis of the bright Seyfert galaxy NGC4151. The source has been observed with the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) for 700 ks,…
