Swift Monitoring of Ngc 4151: Evidence for a Second X-ray/uv Reprocessing
Swift monitoring of NGC 4151 with ∼6 hr sampling over a total of 69 days in early 2016 is used to construct light curves covering five bands in the X-rays (0.3–50 keV) and six in the ultraviolet (UV)/optical (1900–5500 Å). The three hardest X-ray bands (>2.5 keV) are all strongly correlated with no measurable interband lag, while the two softer bands show lower variability and weaker correlatio...
متن کاملUltraviolet and X-ray variability of NGC 4051 over 45 days with XMM–Newton and Swift
We analyse 15 XMM–Newton observations of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4051 obtained over 45 d to determine the ultraviolet (UV) light curve variability characteristics and search for correlated UV/X-ray emission. The UV light curve shows variability on all time-scales, however with lower fractional rms than the 0.2–10 keV X-rays. On days–weeks time-scales the fractional variability of the UV is Fvar ...
متن کاملAn Overview of Technological Developments in Medical Applications of X-Rays and Radioactivity
The years 1895 to 1898 were momentous for their impact on health and human well beings. First, Wilhelm Roentgen noted a glowing fluorescent screen, caused by invisible rays. This event subsequently led to the discovery of X-rays in 1895, and thus the birth of the “atomic ageâ€. Next Becquerel’s investigations of these mysterious rays led to his experiments with uranium salt crystals. He th...
متن کاملX-ray Spectral Variability in Ngc
NGC 3783 was observed for approximately 210 ks by Suzaku and in this time showed significant spectral and flux variability at both short (20 ks) and long (100 ks) timescales. The full observation is found to consist of approximately six “spectral periods” where the behavior of the soft (0.3–1.0 keV) and hard (2–10 keV) bands are somewhat distinct. Using a variety of methods we find that the str...
متن کاملThe Impact of Low Level X-rays on Biosynthesis of Gold Nanoparticles by Actinobacteria
Background; Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) play an important role in medical, health and environmental applications. All kinds of microorganisms were found to be able to synthesize GNPs. The optimization of laboratory conditions for achieving more economical benefits of mass production has been studied widely. Methods;This study assesses the enhancing effect of low-level X-rays on the biosynthesis ...
