Toward a self consistent model of the ionized absorber in NGC 3783
We present a detailed model for the ionized absorbing gas evident in the 900 ksec Chandra HETGS spectrum of NGC 3783. The analysis was carried out with PHASE, a new tool designed to model X-ray and UV absorption features in ionized plasmas. The 0.5-10 keV intrinsic continuum of the source is well represented by a single power law (Γ = 1.53) and a soft black-body component (kT ∼ 0.1 keV). The sp...
متن کاملThe ionized nuclear environment in NGC 985 as seen by Chandra and BeppoSAX
We investigate the ionized environment of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 985 with a new Chandra-HETGS observation and an archival BeppoSAX observation. Both spectra exhibit strong residuals to a single powerlaw model, indicating the presence of an ionized absorber and a soft excess. A detailed model over the Chandra data shows that the 0.6-8 keV intrinsic continuum can be well represented by a powerl...
متن کاملThe ionized gas in the spiral galaxy NGC 3359
We combine Hα imaging and broad-band optical and NIR imaging over the face of the barred galaxy NGC 3359, obtained within the BARS program on the Canary Island telescopes. From the Hα image we have determined the positions, fluxes, and diameters of a total of 547 Hii regions, and computed their luminosity function, whose slope is within the range of those of morphologically similar galaxies fou...
متن کاملThe circumnuclear ring of ionized gas in NGC 3593 ?
We present the results of narrow-band Hα+[N II] imaging of the early-type spiral NGC 3593 in combination with a study of the flux radial profiles of the [N II] (λλ 654.80, 658.34 nm), Hα, and [S II] (λλ 671.65, 673.08 nm) emission lines along its major axis. The galaxy is known to contain two counterrotating stellar discs of different size and luminosity. We find that the Hα emission mainly der...
متن کاملResolving the BLR in NGC 3783
We present results from very high signal-to-noise spectropolari-metric observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783. Position Angle (PA) changes across the Balmer lines show that the scatterer is resolving the Broad-Emission Line Region (BLR). A broad component seen in polarized light and located bluewards from the Hβ line very likely corresponds to HeIIλ4686. The lack of PA changes across thi...
