NuSTAR observations of WISE J1036+0449, a Galaxy at z obscured by hot dust
C. Ricci, R. J. Assef, D. Stern +34
Hot, Dust-Obscured Galaxies (Hot DOGs), selected from the WISE all sky infrared survey, host some of the most powerful Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) known, and might represent an im…
Getting NuSTAR on target: predicting mast motion
Karl Forster, Kristin K. Madsen, Hiromasa Miyasaka +5
The Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) is the first focusing high energy (3-79 keV) X-ray observatory operating for four years from low Earth orbit. The X-ray detector…
The Third Swift Burst Alert Telescope Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog
Amy Lien, Takanori Sakamoto, Scott D. Barthelmy +12
To date, the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) onboard Swift has detected ~ 1000 gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), of which ~ 360 GRBs have redshift measurements, ranging from z = 0.03 to z = 9.3…
A New Population of Compton-Thick AGN Identified Using the Spectral Curvature Above 10 keV
Michael J. Koss, R. Assef, M. Balokovic +18
We present a new metric that uses the spectral curvature (SC) above 10 keV to identify Compton-thick AGN in low-quality Swift BAT X-ray data. Using NuSTAR, we observe nine high SC-…
IC 751: a new changing-look AGN discovered by NuSTAR
C. Ricci, F. E. Bauer, P. Arevalo +12
We present the results of five NuSTAR observations of the type 2 active galactic nucleus (AGN) in IC 751, three of which were performed simultaneously with XMM-Newton or Swift/XRT.…
