Suzaku observations of Mrk 335: Confronting partial covering and relativistic reflection

L. C. Gallo, D. R. Wilkins, K. Bonson +7

We report on the deepest X-ray observation of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 335 in the low-flux state obtained with Suzaku. The data are compared to a 2006 high-flux Suzaku…

Modelling the Extreme X-ray Spectrum of IRAS 13224-3809

Chia-Ying Chiang, D. J. Walton, A. C. Fabian +2

The extreme NLS1 galaxy IRAS 13224-3809 shows significant variability, frequency depended time lags, and strong Fe K line and Fe L features in the long 2011 XMM-Newton observation.…

The NuSTAR spectrum of Mrk 335: Extreme relativistic effects within 2 gravitational radii of the event horizon?

M. L. Parker, D. R. Wilkins, A. C. Fabian +18

We present 3-50 keV NuSTAR observations of the AGN Mrk 335 in a very low flux state. The spectrum is dominated by very strong features at the energies of the iron line at 5-7 keV a…

Caught in the act: Measuring the changes in the corona that cause the extreme variability of 1H 0707-495

D. R. Wilkins, E. Kara, A. C. Fabian +1

The X-ray spectra of the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy, 1H 0707-495, obtained with XMM-Newton, from time periods of varying X-ray luminosity are analysed in the context of understan…

On the determination of the spin and disc truncation of accreting black holes using X-ray reflection

A. C. Fabian, M. L. Parker, D. R. Wilkins +4

We discuss the application of simple relativistically-blurred X-ray reflection models to the determination of the spin and the inner radius of the disc in accreting black holes. Ob…
