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…

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…

A Multi-Wavelength Characterization of the Obscuring Medium at the Center of NGC 6300

D. Sengupta, N. Torres-Albà, A. Pizzetti +9

Most of the super-massive black holes in the Universe accrete material in an obscured phase. While it is commonly accepted that the "dusty torus" is responsible for the nuclear obs…
