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…

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…

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…

X-ray polarization observations of NGC 2110 with IXPE

I. Pal, S. Marchesi, N. Torres-Albá +6

X-ray polarimetric observations from the Imaging X-ray Polarimeter Explorer (IXPE) is an excellent tool for probing the geometry and dynamics of X-ray emitting corona in active gal…

Swift-XRT and NuSTAR Monitoring of Obscuration Variability in Mrk 477

N. Torres-Albà, Z. Hu, I. Cox +6

We present the analysis of 15 X-ray observations of Mrk 477, a nearby Seyfert 2 active galactic nucleus, with the objective to monitor its obscuring column density variability. The…

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…
