High-energy monitoring of NGC 4593 II. Broadband spectral analysis: testing the two-corona model

R. Middei, S. Bianchi, P. -O. Petrucci +9

It is widely believed that the primary X-ray emission of AGN is due to the Comptonisation of optical-UV photons from a hot electron corona, while the origin of the 'soft-excess' is…

A deep X-ray view of the bare AGN Ark 120. VI. Geometry of the hot corona from spectroscopic and polarization signatures

A. Marinucci, D. Porquet, F. Tamborra +9

The spectral shape of the hard X-ray continuum of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can be ascribed to inverse Compton scattering of optical/UV seed photons from the accretion disc by a…

Towards precision tests of general relativity with black hole X-ray reflection spectroscopy

Ashutosh Tripathi, Sourabh Nampalliwar, Askar B. Abdikamalov +5

Astrophysical black hole systems are the ideal laboratories for testing Einstein's theory of gravity in the strong field regime. We have recently developed a framework which uses t…

The NuSTAR view of the Seyfert Galaxy HE 0436-4717

Riccardo Middei, Fausto Vagnetti, Francesco Tombesi +4

We present the multi epoch spectral analysis of HE 0436-4717, a bright Seyfert 1 galaxy serendipitously observed by the high energy satellite NuSTAR four times between December 201…

Tracking the Iron K line and the Ultra Fast Outflow in NGC 2992 at different accretion states

A. Marinucci, S. Bianchi, V. Braito +3

The Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2992 has been monitored eight times by XMM-Newton in 2010 and then observed again in 2013, while in 2015 it was simultaneously targeted by Swift and NuSTAR…

Radio/X-ray monitoring of the broad-line radio galaxy 3C 382. High-energy view with XMM-Newton and NuSTAR

F. Ursini, P. -O. Petrucci, G. Matt +14

We present the analysis of five joint XMM-Newton/NuSTAR observations, 20 ks each and separated by 12 days, of the broad-line radio galaxy 3C 382. The data were obtained as part of…
