Constraints on the ultra-fast outflows in the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 1044 from high-resolution time- and flux-resolved spectroscopy

Yerong Xu, Ciro Pinto, Daniele Rogantini +5

Ultra-fast outflows (UFOs) have been revealed in a large number of active galactic nuclei (AGN) and are regarded as promising candidates for AGN feedback on the host galaxy. The na…

UV/Optical disk reverberation lags despite a faint X-ray corona in the AGN Mrk 335

Erin Kara, Aaron J. Barth, Edward M. Cackett +37

We present the first results from a 100-day Swift, NICER and ground-based X-ray/UV/optical reverberation mapping campaign of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Mrk 335, when it was in an un…

Probing the nature of the low state in the extreme ultraluminous X-ray pulsar NGC 5907 ULX1

F. Fuerst, D. J. Walton, G. L. Israel +13

NGC 5907 ULX1 is the most luminous ultra-luminous X-ray pulsar (ULXP) known to date, reaching luminosities in excess of 1e41 erg/s. The pulsar is known for its fast spin-up during…

Ultra-luminous X-ray sources: extreme accretion and feedback

Ciro Pinto, Dominic J. Walton

Ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are the most extreme members of the X-ray binary population, exhibiting X-ray luminosities that can surpass the 10^39 erg/s threshold (by orders…

Winds in ultraluminous X-ray sources: new challenges

Ciro Pinto, Peter Kosec

Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are extreme X-ray binaries shining above 10^39 erg/s, in most cases as a consequence of super-Eddington accretion onto neutron stars and stellar-…

The Athena X-ray Integral Field Unit: a consolidated design for the system requirement review of the preliminary definition phase

Didier Barret, Vincent Albouys, Jan-Willem den Herder +296

The Athena X-ray Integral Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer, studied since 2015 for flying in the mid-30s on the Athena space X-ray Observatory, a versatile ob…
