Fooled by mass? Recovering the relation of quasars from their X-ray variability
Matilde Signorini, Andrea Sacchi, Bartolomeo Trefoloni +7
We measure the relation between the X-ray photon index and the Eddington ratio in unobscured type-1 quasars, using as parent sample the cross-match of the SDSS DR16Q…
The X-ray-to-UV relation does not evolve in homogeneous quasar samples
G. Risaliti, E. Lusso, E. Nardini +6
We present a new, highly homogeneous quasar sample with X-ray and UV observations optimized to reliably estimate distances via the non-linear X-ray-to-UV relation. Cross-matching t…
Directly tracking the re-brightening of a supermassive black hole accretion disk
R. Middei, E. Nardini, C. Done +12
Accretion onto supermassive black holes powers the most luminous persistent sources in the Universe, the so-called active galactic nuclei, whose emission is characterized by two di…
The X-ray properties of the most luminous quasars with strong emission-line outflows
Anastasia Shlentsova, Bartolomeo Trefoloni, Matilde Signorini +7
Strong outflows from active galactic nuclei are frequently observed in objects with lower coronal X-ray luminosity. This intrinsic X-ray weakness is considered a requirement for th…
Fast, dust-poor outflows in the local candidate dual AGN MCG-03-34-64 observed with VLT/ERIS
I. Lamperti, F. Mannucci, E. Bertola +28
We present VLT/ERIS IFU J-band observations of MCG-03-34-64, a nearby (z = 0.0167) Seyfert galaxy hosting a candidate dual AGN system with a separation of ~100 pc between the nucle…
The accretion of quasars at the epoch of reionisation: catches the primeval monsters slowly feasting
B. Trefoloni, E. Nardini, S. Carniani +8
Quasars (QSOs) emit an enormous amount of light as a result of the accretion of gas onto supermassive black holes (SMBHs). Thanks to their luminosity, the most distant known QSOs a…
