Lense-Thirring precession in ULXs as a possible means to constrain the neutron star equation-of-state

M. J. Middleton, P. C. Fragile, M. Bachetti +11

The presence of neutron stars in at least three ultraluminous X-ray sources is now firmly established and offers an unambiguous view of super-critical accretion. All three systems…

The NuSTAR Serendipitous Survey: Hunting for The Most Extreme Obscured AGN at >10 keV

G. B. Lansbury, D. M. Alexander, J. Aird +27

We identify sources with extremely hard X-ray spectra (i.e., with photon indices of Gamma<0.6 in the 13 sq. deg. NuSTAR serendipitous survey, to search for the most highly obscured…

Chasing obscuration in type-I AGN: discovery of an eclipsing clumpy wind at the outer broad-line region of NGC 3783

M. Mehdipour, J. S. Kaastra, G. A. Kriss +21

In 2016 we carried out a Swift monitoring program to track the X-ray hardness variability of eight type-I AGN over a year. The purpose of this monitoring was to find intense obscur…

X-ray bolometric corrections for Compton-thick active galactic nuclei

M. Brightman, M. Baloković, D. R. Ballantyne +16

We present X-ray bolometric correction factors, (), for Compton-thick (CT) active galactic nuclei (AGN) with the aim of testing AGN torus models, prob…

Super-Eddington Accretion onto the Neutron Star NGC 7793 P13: Broadband X-ray Spectroscopy and Ultraluminous X-ray Sources

D. J. Walton, F. Fuerst, F. A. Harrison +8

We present a detailed, broadband X-ray spectral analysis of the ULX pulsar NGC 7793 P13, a known super-Eddington source, utilizing data from the -, and $Chand…

X-ray Lags in PDS 456 Revealed by Suzaku Observations

Chia-Ying Chiang, E. M. Cackett, A. Zoghbi +5

X-ray reverberation lags from the vicinity of supermassive black holes have been detected in almost 30 AGN. The soft lag, which is the time delay between the hard and soft X-ray li…
