The thermal instability of the warm absorber in NGC 3783

R. W. Goosmann, T. Holczer, M. Mouchet +5

We model the observed X-ray spectral continuum shape, ionic column densities, and absorption measure distribution (AMD) of the warm absorber in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 3783. We assu…

High resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the Seyfert 1 Mrk841: insights into the warm absorber and warm emitter

A. L. Longinotti, E. Costantini, P. O. Petrucci +6

The Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk841 was observed five times between 2001 and 2005 by the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory. The source is well known for showing spectral complexity in the varia…

Thermal instability in X-ray photoionized media in Active Galactic Nuclei: II. Role of the thermal conduction in warm absorber

B. Czerny, L. Chevallier, A. C. Goncalves +2

A photoionized gas under constant pressure can display a thermal instability, with three or more solutions for possible thermal equilibrium. A unique solution of the structure of t…

How to estimate the distance to the Warm Absorber in AGN from photoionized models

Agata Różańska, Izabela Kowalska, Anabela Goncalves

We present a method that allows us to estimate the distance from the continuum source located in the center of AGN to the highly ionized gas called warm absorber. We compute a set…

Thermal instabilities in Active Galactic Nuclei: the case of thin vs. thick ionized media

A. C. Goncalves, S. Collin, A. -M. Dumont

We have studied the thermal instabilities in the context of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), addressing the cases of thin and thick (stratified) X-ray illuminated media. For that, we…

Soft-excess in ULX spectra: disc emission or wind absorption?

A. C. Goncalves, R. Soria

We assess the claim that Ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs) host intermediate-mass black holes (BH) by comparing the cool disc-blackbody model with a range of other models, namell…
