Extinction curves in AGN

B. Czerny

The presence of the dust in the circumnuclear region strongly affects our view of the nucleus itself. The effect is strong in type 2 objects but weaker effect is likely to be prese…

Black hole masses in NLS1 galaxies from the X-ray excess variance method

M. Nikolajuk, P. Gurynowicz, B. Czerny

We estimate black hole masses in Narrow Line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies at the basis of their X-ray excess variance. We apply the standard approach appropriate for Broad Line Seyfer…

Modeling the UBVRI time delays in Mrk 335

B. Czerny, A. Janiuk

We develop a model of time delays between the continuum bands in the Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 335 to explain the observed delays measured in this source. We consider two ge…

Magnetic flares in Active Galactic Nuclei: Modeling the iron Kalpha-line

R. W. Goosmann, B. Czerny, M. Mouchet +5

The X-ray spectra of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are complex and vary rapidly in time as seen in recent observations. Magnetic flares above the accretion disk can account for the…

Wavelet analysis of MCG-6-30-15 and NGC 4051: a possible discovery of QPOs in 2:1 and 3:2 resonance

Pawel Lachowicz, Bozena Czerny, Marek A. Abramowicz

Following our previous work of Lachowicz & Czerny (2005), we explore further the application of the continuous wavelet transform to X-ray astronomical signals. Using the public arc…

Consistency of the black hole mass determination in AGN from the reverberation and the X-ray excess variance method

M. Nikolajuk, B. Czerny, J. Ziolkowski +1

Values of black hole masses are frequently determined with the help of the reverberation method. This method requires a specific geometrical factor related to the distribution of t…
