A Self-Consistent Test of Comptonisation Models Using Bepposax Observations of Seyfert Galaxies
P. O. Petrucci, F. Haardt, L. Maraschi +6
We test accurate models of Comptonisation spectra over BeppoSAX observations of Seyfert galaxies focusing on the long look at NGC 5548. The hot plasma temperature derived with thes…
