Ordered magnetic fields around the 3C 84 central black hole
G. F. Paraschos, J. -Y. Kim, M. Wielgus +279
3C84 is a nearby radio source with a complex total intensity structure, showing linear polarisation and spectral patterns. A detailed investigation of the central engine region nec…
The High Energy X-ray Probe (HEX-P): The Circum-nuclear Environment of Growing Supermassive Black Holes
P. G. Boorman, N. Torres-Albà, A. Annuar +32
Ever since the discovery of the first Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), substantial observational and theoretical effort has been invested into understanding how massive black holes ha…
Comparison of Polarized Radiative Transfer Codes used by the EHT Collaboration
Cora Prather, Jason Dexter, Monika Moscibrodzka +270
Interpretation of resolved polarized images of black holes by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) requires predictions of the polarized emission observable by an Earth-based instrume…
Constraining the X-ray reflection in low accretion rate AGN using XMM-Newton, NuSTAR and Swift
Y. Díaz, L. Hernández-García, P. Arévalo +8
An interesting feature in active galactic nuclei (AGN) accreting at low rate is the weakness of the reflection features in their X-ray spectra, which can result from the gradual di…
BASS XXXIII: Swift-BAT blazars and their jets through cosmic time
L. Marcotulli, M. Ajello, C. M. Urry +13
We derive the most up-to-date Swift-Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) blazar luminosity function in the 14-195 keV range, making use of a clean sample of 118 blazars detected in the BAT…
Physically motivated X-ray obscurer models
Johannes Buchner, Murray Brightman, Mislav Baloković +3
The nuclear obscurer of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is poorly understood in terms of its origin, geometry and dynamics. We investigate whether physically motivated geometries emer…
Investigation of the correlation patterns and the Compton dominance variability of Mrk 421 in 2017
MAGIC Collaboration, V. A. Acciari, S. Ansoldi +284
We present a detailed characterisation and theoretical interpretation of the broadband emission of the paradigmatic TeV blazar Mrk 421, with special focus on the multi-band flux co…
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…
A search for spectral hysteresis and energy-dependent time lags from X-ray and TeV gamma-ray observations of Mrk 421
A. U. Abeysekara, S. Archambault, A. Archer +220
Blazars are variable emitters across all wavelengths over a wide range of timescales, from months down to minutes. It is therefore essential to observe blazars simultaneously at di…
The Phoenix galaxy as seen by NuSTAR
A. Masini, A. Comastri, S. Puccetti +18
Aims. We study the long-term variability of the well-known Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 1210 (a.k.a. UGC 4203, or the Phoenix galaxy). Methods. The source was observed by many X-ray facili…
Rapid Variability of Blazar 3C 279 during Flaring States in 2013-2014 with Joint Fermi-LAT, NuSTAR, Swift, and Ground-Based Multi-wavelength Observations
M. Hayashida, K. Nalewajko, G. M. Madejski +49
We report the results of a multi-band observing campaign on the famous blazar 3C 279 conducted during a phase of increased activity from 2013 December to 2014 April, including firs…
