BeppoSAX uncovers a type-2 QSO in the hyperluminous infrared galaxy IRAS 09104+4109
A. Franceschini, L. Bassani, L. Cappi +4
We studied with BeppoSAX the infrared luminous galaxy IRAS 09104+4109 over a very wide X-ray band from 0.1 to 80 keV. Our observations indicate the dominance of a thermal component…
The low luminosity AGN in the LINER galaxy M81: BeppoSAX discovery of highly ionized gas
S. Pellegrini, M. Cappi, L. Bassani +3
The LINER nucleus of the nearby spiral galaxy M81 was pointed by BeppoSAX, which caught it at the highest (2-10) keV flux level observed so far. The LECS, MECS and PDS data, extend…
BeppoSAX unveils the nuclear component in NGC 6240
P. Vignati, S. Molendi, G. Matt +10
The direct nuclear X-ray emission of the ultraluminous IRAS galaxy NGC 6240 has been observed for the first time by BeppoSAX. It is seen through an absorber with N_H=2*10^{24} cm^{…
BeppoSAX observations of Mkn 3: Piercing through the torus of a Seyfert 2 galaxy
M. Cappi, L. Bassani, A. Comastri +15
A new BeppoSAX broad-band (0.6-150 keV) spectrum of the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mkn 3 is presented. The spectrum provides a direct measurement of a large, neutral column of gas with Nh~10…
BeppoSAX observations of bright Seyfert 2 galaxies
L. Bassani, M. Cappi, G. Malaguti
We report on BeppoSAX broad band (0.1-100 keV) observations of bright Seyfert 2 galaxies and discuss the results in the framework of the unified theory of AGNs. The data are used t…
