On X-ray Variability in Seyfert Galaxies
This paper presents a quantification of the X-ray variability amplitude for 79 ASCA observations of 36 Seyfert 1 galaxies. We find that consideration of sources with the narrowest permitted lines in the optical band introduces scatter into the established correlation between X-ray variability and nuclear luminosity. Consideration of the X-ray spectral index and variability properties together s...
متن کاملThe nature of X-ray spectral variability in Seyfert Galaxies
We use a model-independent technique to investigate the nature of the 2-15 keV X-ray spectral variability in four Seyfert galaxies and distinguish between spectral pivoting and the twocomponent model for spectral variability. Our analysis reveals conclusively that the softening of the X-ray continuum with increasing flux in MCG−6-30-15 and NGC 3516 is a result of summing two spectral components...
متن کاملAnisotropic illumination in AGNs The reflected component. Comparison to hard X-ray spectra from Seyfert Galaxies
We calculate the reflection component predicted by the anisotropic illumination model of Henri & Petrucci 1997. This component appears to be more important than for isotropic models. The overall X/γ spectrum is found to be strongly angledependent. When the accretion disc is seen with a nearly edge-on orientation the reflection hump is weak, while a face-on viewing angle leads to a proeminent re...
متن کاملSpitzer spectra of Seyfert galaxies
The Spitzer IRS high resolution spectra of about 90 Seyfert galaxies from the 12μm Galaxy Sample are presented and discussed. These represent about 70% of the total complete sample of local Seyfert galaxies. The presence of starburst components in these galaxies can be quantified by powerful mid-IR diagnostics tools (i.e. 11.25μm PAH feature equivalent width and the H2 emission line intensity) ...
