Variability In The Narrow - Line QSO PHL 1092
A ROSAT observation of the narrow-line Fe II QSO PHL 1092 shows rapid variability that requires an efficiency of at least 0.13, exceeding the theoretical maximum for an accretion disk around a non-rotating black hole. Plausible explanations for this high efficiency incorporate anisotropic emission and/or accretion onto a rapidly rotating black hole, the latter recently suggested by Kwan et al. ...
متن کاملIs a minor - merger driving the nuclear activity in the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110 ?
We report on a detailed morphological and kinematic study of the isolated non-barred nearby Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 2110. We combine Integral Field optical spectroscopy, with long-slit and WFPC2 imaging available in the HST archive to investigate the fueling mechanism in this galaxy. Previous work (Wilson & Baldwin 1985) concluded that the kinematic center of the galaxy is displaced ∼ 220 pc from ...
متن کامل5 X - ray Bright QSO ’ s around NGC 3079
NGC 3079 is a very active, disturbed galaxy which has been observed to have X-ray and radio ejections from it as well as an optical superbubble along its minor axis. Here we show that the brightest X-ray sources within about 40 arcmin are in large excess of background values. The X-ray sources are identified as quasars and AGN's which are aligned and spaced across the Seyfert nucleus to a degre...
متن کاملThe minor axis outflow of NGC 2146
X-ray and optical observations have shown that the supernova explosions and stellar winds of the starburst in NGC 2146 produce an outflow of hot material along the minor axis. This outflow is expected to have a more or less conical shape, on either side of the galactic plane, and cone walls of cooler material where the outflow is in shock contact with halo gas. We attempt to determine the geome...
متن کاملA Luminous X-ray Flare from the Nucleus of the Dormant Bulgeless Spiral Galaxy Ngc 247
NGC 247 is a nearby late-type bulgeless spiral galaxy that contains an inactive nucleus. We report a serendipitous discovery of an X-ray flare from the galaxy center with a luminosity of up to 2 1039 ́ erg s in the 0.3–10 keV band with XMM-Newton. A Chandra observation confirms that the new X-ray source is spatially coincident with the galaxy nucleus. The XMM-Newton data revealed a hard power-la...
