Comments on the Intrinsic X-ray/uv Absorbers in Agn
This talk discusses the unified X-ray/UV absorption models in AGN. I will first review the models and discuss how they offer an unique opportunity to probe the near nuclear environment of AGNs. Recently, however, the validity of these models has been questioned by a number of authors. I will discuss these papers and argue that the data/ models presented in them do NOT contradict the unified X-r...
متن کاملPhase Lags and Coherence of X-ray Variability in Black Hole Candidates
The \low" (hard or \non-thermal") state of black hole candidates is sometimes modelled via an optically thick, hot Compton cloud that obscures a softer input source such as an accretion disk. In these models the observed output spectra consist entirely of photons reprocessed by the cloud, making it diicult to extract information about the input spectra. Recently Miller (1995) has argued that th...
متن کاملThe X-ray spectral properties of X-ray selected AGN : ROSAT spectra of EMSS AGN
Using a sample of 63 AGNs extracted from the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS), we study the X-ray spectral properties of X-ray selected AGN in the 0.1−2.4 keV ROSAT band. These objects are all the EMSS AGN detected with more than 300 net counts in ROSAT PSPC images available from the public archive (as of May 31, 1995). A Kolmogorov-Smirnov test on the redshift and luminosity ...
متن کاملX-ray Reflections on Agn
X-ray reflection generates much of the spectral complexity in the X-ray spectra of AGN. It is argued that strong relativistic blurring of the reflection spectrum should commonly be expected from objects accreting at a high Eddington rate. The good agreement found between the local density in massive black holes and the energy density in quasar and AGN light requires that the accretion which bui...
