The response of the X - ray luminosity to the interaction strength in Seyfert 1 & 2 galaxies

چکیده
We have correlated a sample of 99 Seyfert 1 & 98 Seyfert 2 (Rafanelli et al., 1995) interacting galaxies with the survey and pointed ROSAT data and have detected 91 Seyferts 1 & 47 Seyfert 2s in the X-ray band. We have performed spectral and timing analysis of the X-ray detected sources, and we have examined the relation of the X-ray luminosity L X with the interaction strength Q.

Soft X-ray properties of a spectroscopically selected sample of interacting and isolated Seyfert galaxies
We present a catalogue of ROSAT detected sources in the sample of spectroscopically selected Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 galaxies of Rafanelli et al. (1995). The catalogue contains 102 Seyfert 1 and 36 Seyfert 2 galaxies. The identification is based on X-ray contour maps overlaid on optical images taken from the Digitized Sky Survey. We have derived the basic spectral and timing properties of the X...
متن کاملAsca Observation of an X-ray–luminous Active Nucleus in Markarian
We have obtained a moderately long (10 s) ASCA observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Markarian 231, the most luminous of the local ultraluminous infrared galaxy population. In the best-fitting model we do not see the X-ray source directly; the spectrum consists of a scattered power-law component and a reflection component, both of which have been absorbed by a column . About three-quarters of the...
متن کاملASCA Observation of an X - Ray - Luminous Active Nucleus in Markarian 231
We have obtained a moderately long (10 second) ASCA observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Markarian 231, the most luminous of the local ultraluminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) population. In the best-fitting model we do not see the X-ray source directly; the spectrum consists of a scattered power-law component and a reflection component, both of which have been absorbed by a column NH ≈ 3× 10 22 cm...
متن کاملCompact Radio Cores and Nuclear Activity in Seyfert Galaxies
Using recent high–resolution (<0.1”) radio observations of a large sample of Seyfert galaxies (Roy et al., 1994), we analyze the relations between their compact radio core emission and several nuclear and host galaxy properties (galaxy morphology, optical, infrared, X-ray, extended radio emissions, interaction parameters, and some emission line properties). We apply survival analysis techniques...
متن کاملHard X-ray Emission and the Ionizing Source in LINERs
We report X-ray fluxes in the 2–10 keV band from LINERs (low-ionization nuclear emission-line regions) and low-luminosity Seyfert galaxies obtained with the ASCA satellite. Observed X-ray luminosities are in the range between 4×10 and 5×10 ergs s, which are significantly smaller than that of the “classical” low-luminosity Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051. We found that X-ray luminosities in 2–10 keV o...
