Coronal temperatures of the AGN ESO 103-035 and IGR 2124.7+5058 from NuSTAR observations

D. J. K. Buisson, A. C. Fabian, A. M. Lohfink

We present measurements of the coronae of two AGN from hard X-ray observations made with NuSTAR: ESO 103-035, a moderately to highly obscured source with significant reflection; an…

BAT AGN Spectroscopic Survey -- XII. The relation between coronal properties of Active Galactic Nuclei and the Eddington ratio

C. Ricci, L. C. Ho, A. C. Fabian +12

The bulk of the X-ray emission in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is produced very close to the accreting supermassive black hole (SMBH), in a corona of hot electrons which up scatter…

Coronal properties of Swift/BAT-selected Seyfert 1 AGN observed with NuSTAR

Nikita Kamraj, Fiona Harrison, Mislav Baloković +2

The NuSTAR observatory, with its high sensitivity in hard X-rays, has enabled detailed broadband modeling of the X-ray spectra of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), thereby allowing con…

X-ray Structure between the Innermost Disk and Optical Broad Line Region in NGC 4151

J. M. Miller, E. Cackett, A. Zoghbi +9

We present an analysis of the narrow Fe K-alpha line in Chandra/HETGS observations of the Seyfert AGN, NGC 4151. The sensitivity and resolution afforded by the gratings reveal asym…

Observing the Shadows of Stellar-Mass Black Holes with Binary Companions

Harrison Gott, Dimitry Ayzenberg, Nicolas Yunes +1

The observation of the shadows cast by the event horizon of black holes on the light emitted in its neighborhood is the target of current very-long-baseline-interferometric observa…

Relativistic spectroscopy of the extreme NLS1 IRAS13224-3809

M. L. Parker, W. N. Alston, D. J. K Buisson +5

The narrow line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) IRAS 13224-3809 is the most X-ray variable active galactic nucleus (AGN), exhibiting 0.3-10 keV flux changes of over an order of magnitude within a…

NuSTAR observations of Mrk 766: distinguishing reflection from absorption

D. J. K. Buisson, M. L. Parker, E. Kara +14

We present two new NuSTAR observations of the narrow line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy Mrk 766 and give constraints on the two scenarios previously proposed to explain its spectrum and…

The 1.5 Ms Observing Campaign on IRAS 13224-3809: X-ray Spectral Analysis I

J. Jiang, M. L. Parker, A. C. Fabian +16

We present a detailed spectral analysis of the recent 1.5\,Ms XMM-Newton observing campaign on the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy IRAS~132243809, taken simultaneously with 500\,ks…

The remarkable X-ray variability of IRAS 13224-3809 I: The variability process

W. N. Alston, A. C. Fabian, D. J. K. Buisson +17

We present a detailed X-ray timing analysis of the highly variable NLS1 galaxy, IRAS 13224-3809. The source was recently monitored for 1.5 Ms with XMM-Newton which, combined with 5…
