The hard X-ray spectrum of NGC 5506 as seen by NuSTAR
G. Matt, M. Balokovic, A. Marinucci +12
NuSTAR observed the bright Compton-thin, narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy, NGC 5506, for about 56 ks. In agreement with past observations, the spectrum is well fit by a power law with…
ASTRO-H White Paper - AGN Reflection
C. Reynolds, Y. Ueda, H. Awaki +9
X-ray observations provide a powerful tool to probe the central engines of active galactic nuclei (AGN). A hard X-ray continuum is produced from deep within the accretion flow onto…
The Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110: hard X-ray emission observed by NuSTAR and variability of the iron K line
A. Marinucci, G. Matt, S. Bianchi +16
We present NuSTAR observations of the bright Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110 obtained in 2012, when the source was at the highest flux level ever observed, and in 2013, when the source w…
The NuSTAR View of Nearby Compton-thick AGN: The Cases of NGC 424, NGC 1320 and IC 2560
M. Baloković, A. Comastri, F. A. Harrison +25
We present X-ray spectral analyses for three Seyfert 2 active galactic nuclei, NGC 424, NGC 1320, and IC 2560, observed by NuSTAR in the 3-79 keV band. The high quality hard X-ray…
Weak Hard X-ray Emission from Broad Absorption Line Quasars: Evidence for Intrinsic X-ray Weakness
B. Luo, W. N. Brandt, D. M. Alexander +19
We report NuSTAR observations of a sample of six X-ray weak broad absorption line (BAL) quasars. These targets, at z=0.148-1.223, are among the optically brightest and most luminou…
NuSTAR unveils a Compton-thick Type 2 quasar in Mrk 34
P. Gandhi, G. B. Lansbury, D. M. Alexander +27
We present Nustar 3-40 keV observations of the optically selected Type 2 quasar (QSO2) SDSS J1034+6001 or Mrk 34. The high-quality hard X-ray spectrum and archival XMM-Newton data…
The 2-79 keV X-ray Spectrum of the Circinus Galaxy with NuSTAR, XMM-Newton and Chandra: a Fully Compton-Thick AGN
P. Arévalo, F. E. Bauer, S. Puccetti +24
The Circinus galaxy is one of the nearest obscured AGN, making it an ideal target for detailed study. Combining archival Chandra and XMM-Newton data with new NuSTAR observations, w…
NuSTAR Observations of Heavily Obscured Quasars at z ~ 0.5
G. B. Lansbury, D. M. Alexander, A. Del Moro +23
We present NuSTAR hard X-ray (3-79 keV) observations of three Type 2 quasars at z ~ 0.4-0.5, optically selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Although the quasars show…
