NuSTAR/XMM-Newton monitoring of the Seyfert 1 galaxy HE 1143-1810. Testing the two-corona scenario

F. Ursini, P. -O. Petrucci, S. Bianchi +11

We test the two-corona accretion scenario for active galactic nuclei in the case of the `bare' Seyfert 1 galaxy HE 1143-1810. We perform a detailed study of the broad-band UV--X-ra…

Incoherent fast variability of X-ray obscurers. The case of NGC 3783

B. De Marco, T. P. Adhikari, G. Ponti +22

Context. Obscuration events caused by outflowing clumps or streams of high column density, low ionisation gas, heavily absorbing the X-ray continuum, have been witnessed in a numbe…

Multi-wavelength campaign on NGC 7469 V. Analysis of the HST/COS observations: Super solar metallicity, distance, and trough variation models

N. Arav, X. Xu, G. A. Kriss +18

Aims. Our aim is to determine the distance of the UV outflow components from the central source, their abundances and total column density, and the mechanism responsible for their…

Relations between phenomenological and physical parameters in the hot coronae of AGNs computed with the MoCA code

R. Middei, S. Bianchi, A. Marinucci +4

The primary X-ray emission in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is widely believed to be due to Comptonisation of the thermal radiation from the accretion disc in a corona of hot elect…

Multi-wavelength Campaign on NGC 7469 VI. Photoionisation Modelling of the Emission Line Regions and the Warm Absorber

S. Grafton-Waters, G. Branduardi-Raymont, M. Mehdipour +16

Aims. We aim to investigate and characterise the photoionised X-ray emission line regions within NGC 7469. Methods. We apply the photoionisation model, PION, within the spectral fi…

HST unveils a compact mildly relativistic Broad Line Region in the candidate true type 2 NGC 3147

Stefano Bianchi, Robert Antonucci, Alessandro Capetti +9

NGC 3147 has been considered the best case of a true type 2 AGN: an unobscured AGN, based on the unabsorbed compact X-ray continuum, which lacks a broad line region (BLR). However,…
