The WISSHFUL program: the highest redshift UFO discovered in a non-lensed QSO
G. Lanzuisi, L. Borrelli, E. Piconcelli +28
We present the first results from the WISSHFUL program, an XMM-Newton heritage program targeting luminous QSOs at Cosmic Noon. We report on recent simultaneous XMM-Newton and NuSTA…
Source identification for the Swift-BAT 150-month hard X-ray catalog using soft X-ray observations
K. Imam, N. Torres-Alba, S. Marchesi +10
We present a comprehensive catalog of 251 potential counterparts for 250 unassociated hard X-ray sources detected in the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) 150-month hard X-ray surv…
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…
Hydrogen Column Density Variability in a Sample of Local Compton-Thin AGN II
A. Pizzetti, N. Torres-Alba, S. Marchesi +7
We present the multi-epoch analysis of 13 variable, nearby (z<0.1), Compton-thin (22<logN_H<24) active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected from the 105-month BAT catalog. Analyzing all…
The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): Bringing the Cosmic X-ray Background into Focus
Francesca Civano, Xiurui Zhao, Peter Boorman +29
Since the discovery of the cosmic X-ray background (CXB), astronomers have strived to understand the accreting supermassive black holes (SMBHs) contributing to its peak in the 10-4…
