The origin of the strong soft excess and puzzling iron line complex in Mkn 841
by XMM-Newton for a total cumulated exposure time of ∼108 ks. We present in this paper a broad band spectral analysis of the complete EPIC-pn data sets. These observations confirm the presence of the strong soft excess and complex iron line profile known to be present in this source since a long time. They also reveal their extreme and puzzling spectral and temporal behaviors. Indeed, the 0.5-2...
متن کاملIron line emission in X–ray afterglows
Recent observations of X–ray afterglows reveal the presence of a redshifted Kα iron line in emission in four bursts. In GRB 991216, the line was detected by the low energy grating of Chandra, which showed the line to be broad, with a full width of ∼15,000 km s. These observations indicate the presence of a > 1 M⊙ of iron rich material in the close vicinity of the burst, most likely a supernova ...
متن کاملThe extended narrow line region in Mkn 79 II . Modelling
We present photoionization modelling of the Extended Narrow Line Region (ENLR) in Mkn 79 based on long-slit spectra presented in our previous paper (Nazarova et al. 1996). The ENLR has been modelled with two gas components: a system of high density clouds embedded in a low density gas envelope. The ENLR line fluxes have been calculated allowing for attenuation of the nuclear ionizing continuum ...
متن کاملOn the variability of the iron line in Mrk 841
Petrucci et al. (2002; hereafter P02) have reported extraordinary behaviour of the iron Kα line in the type 1 AGN Mrk 841. At the XMM-Newton/EPIC resolution, a narrow line was observed in a short observation, which then apparently disappeared around 0.5 days later when another observation was performed. The limits are such that the line cannot both be narrow, and variable at this level, as the ...
متن کاملX-ray spectral complexity in narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies
We present a systematic analysis of the X-ray spectral properties of a sample of 22 “narrow-line” Seyfert 1 galaxies for which data are available from the ASCA public archive. Many of these sources, which were selected on the basis of their relatively narrow Hβ line width (FWHM ≤2000 km/s), show significant spectral complexity in the X-ray band. Their measured hard power-law continua have photo...
