AGN variability time scales and the discrete-event model
P. Favre, T. J. -L. Courvoisier, S. Paltani
We analyse the ultraviolet variability time scales in a sample of 15 Type 1 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) observed by IUE. Using a structure function analysis, we demonstrate the ex…
INTEGRAL and XMM-Newton Spectral Studies of NGC 4388
V. Beckmann, N. Gehrels, P. Favre +4
We present first INTEGRAL and XMM-Newton observations of a Seyfert galaxy, the type 2 AGN NGC 4388. Several INTEGRAL observations performed in 2003 allow us to study the spectrum i…
Scientific Performance of the ISDC Quick Look Analysis
S. E. Shaw, N. Mowlavi, K. Ebisawa +22
The INTEGRAL Science Data Centre (ISDC) routinely monitors the Near Real Time data (NRT) from the INTEGRAL satellite. A first scientific analysis is made in order to check for the…
INTEGRAL and RXTE observations of broad-line radio galaxy 3C 111
M. Chernyakova, P. Favre, T. J. -L. Courvoisier +8
3C 111 is an X-ray bright broad-line radio galaxy which is classified as a Fanaroff-Riley type II source with a double-lobe/single jet morphology, and reported superluminal motion.…
BeppoSAX observations of the quasar Markarian 205
P. Favre, P. -O. Petrucci, V. Beckmann +1
We present the first BeppoSAX observation (0.1 to 220 keV) of the quasar Mrk 205. We have searched for the unusual Fe line profile claimed in the XMM-Newton spectrum which has been…
The Gamma-ray bright BL Lac object RX J1211+2242
V. Beckmann, P. Favre, F. Tavecchio +3
RX J1211+2242 is an optically faint (B = 19.2 mag) but X-ray bright (2 - 10 keV flux fx = 5e-12 erg/cm**2/sec) AGN, which has been shown to be a BL Lac object at redshift z = 0.455…
