A Search for X-ray/UV Correlation in the Reflection-Dominated Seyfert 1 Galaxy Mrk 1044

Samuzal Barua, Oluwashina K. Adegoke, Ranjeev Misra +3

Correlated variability between coronal X-rays and disc optical/UV photons provides a very useful diagnostic of the interplay between the different regions around an active galactic…

Long-term optical and ray variability of the blazar PKS~1222+216

Savithri H. Ezhikode, Amit Shukla, Gulab C. Dewangan +4

The ray emission from flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) is thought to be dominated by the inverse Compton scattering of the external sources of photon fields, e.g., accretion…

Strong Soft X-ray Excess in 2015 XMM-Newton Observation of BL--Lac OJ~287

Main Pal, Pankaj Kushwaha, Gulab C. Dewangan +1

We report a strong soft X-ray excess in the BL--Lacartae -ray blazar OJ~287 during the long exposure in May 2015, amongst two of the latest \xmm~{} observations performed in May…

UV to X-ray Comptonization delay in Mrk 493

Oluwashina Adegoke, Gulab C. Dewangan, Pramod Pawar +1

The broadband X-ray emission from type 1 active galactic nuclei, dominated by a powerlaw continuum, is thought to arise from repeated inverse Compton scattering of seed optical/UV…

Complex UV/X-ray variability of 1H~0707-495

P. K. Pawar, G. C. Dewangan, I. E. Papadakis +3

We study the relationship between the UV and X-ray variability of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy 1H~0707-495. Using a year long {\it Swift} monitoring and four long {\it XMM-Newt…

The Cadmium Zinc Telluride Imager on AstroSat

V. Bhalerao, D. Bhattacharya, A. Vibhute +21

The Cadmium Zinc Telluride Imager (CZTI) is a high energy, wide-field imaging instrument on AstroSat. CZT's namesake Cadmium Zinc Telluride detectors cover an energy range from 20…

On the reality of broad iron L lines from the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies 1H0707-495 and IRAS 13224-3809

Pramod Pawar, Gulab Dewangan, Madhav Patil +2

We performed time resolved spectroscopy of 1H0707-495 and IRAS 13224-3809 using long XMM-Newton observations. These are strongly variable narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies and show br…

X-ray/UV variability and the origin of soft X-ray excess emission from II Zw 177

Main Pal, Gulab C. Dewangan, Ranjeev Misra +1

We study X-ray and UV emission from the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy II~Zw~177 using a $137\ks$ long and another $13\ks$ short \xmm{} observation performed in 2012 and 2001, respec…

Constraining distance and inclination angle of V4641 Sgr using and observations during low soft spectral state

Mayukh Pahari, Ranjeev Misra, Gulab C Dewangan +1

We present results from and /XRT joint spectral analysis of V4641 Sgr during a disk dominated or soft state as well as a powerlaw dominated or hard stat…

X-ray cavities and temperature jumps in the environment of the strong cool core cluster Abell 2390

S. S. Sonkamble, N. D. Vagshette, P. K. Pawar +1

We present results based on the systematic analysis of high resolution 95 ks Chandra observations of the strong cool core cluster Abell 2390 at the redshift of z= 0.228 that hosts…
