NGC 5548: Lack of a Broad Fe K Line and Constraints on the Location of the Hard X-ray Source
Laura Brenneman, Martin Elvis, Yair Krongold +2
We present an analysis of the co-added and individual 0.7-40 keV spectra from seven Suzaku observations of the Sy 1.5 galaxy NGC 5548 taken over a period of eight weeks. We conclud…
The Extreme Physics Explorer and Large Area Micro-Channel Plate Optics
Michael Garcia, Martin Elvis, Jon Chappell +10
The Extreme Physics Explorer (EPE) is a concept timing/spectroscopy mission that would use micro-channel plate optics (MCPO) to provide 4 square meters effective area focused to ~1…
The impact of galaxy interactions on AGN activity in zCOSMOS
J. D. Silverman, P. Kampczyk, K. Jahnke +52
Close encounters between galaxies are expected to be a viable mechanism, as predicted by numerical simulations, by which accretion onto supermassive black holes can be initiated. T…
A Close Nuclear Black Hole Pair in the Spiral Galaxy NGC 3393
G. Fabbiano, Wang Junfeng, M. Elvis +1
The current picture of galaxy evolution advocates co-evolution of galaxies and their nuclear massive black holes (MBHs), through accretion and merging. Quasar pairs (6,000-300,000…
Dissecting Photometric redshift for Active Galactic Nuclei using XMM- and Chandra-COSMOS samples
M. Salvato, O. Ilbert, G. Hasinger +61
With this paper, we release accurate photometric redshifts for 1692 counterparts to Chandra sources in the central square degree of the COSMOS field. The availability of a large tr…
A Spitzer-MIPS search for dust in compact high-velocity HI clouds
Rik J. Williams, Smita Mathur, Shawn Poindexter +2
We employ three-band Spitzer-MIPS observations to search for cold dust emission in three neutral hydrogen compact high-velocity clouds (CHVCs) in the vicinity of the Milky Way. Far…
