Nuclear obscuration and scattering in Seyfert 2 galaxies
We study the relation between gaseous absorbing column density (NH), infrared colors and detectability of the broad lines in a large sample of Seyfert 2 galaxies(Sy2s). We confirm that Sy2s without polarized broad lines tend to have cooler 60μm/25μm colors; this correlation was previously ascribed to the effect of obscuration towards the nuclear region. We find some evidence that Sy2s without p...
متن کاملObscuration in Extremely Luminous Quasars
The SEDs and IR spectra of a remarkable sample of obscured AGNs selected in the MIR are modeled with recent clumpy torus models. The sample contains 21 AGNs at z 1⁄4 1:3Y3 discovered in the largest Spitzer surveys (SWIRE, NDWFS, and FLS) by means of their extremely red IR to optical colors. All sources show the 9.7 m silicate feature in absorption and have extremeMIR luminosities [L(6 m) ’ 10 e...
متن کاملInvestigating on the nuclear obscuration in two types of Seyfert 2 galaxies
We build a large sample of Seyfert 2 galaxies (Sy2s) with both optical spec-tropolarimetric and X-ray data available, in which 41 Sy2s with the detection of polarized broad emission line (PBL) and 32 without. We found that for luminous Sy2s (with L 2−10keV > 10 42 erg s −1), most (92%) of the Compton-thin sources show PBL, while only 53% Compton-thick sources do. Our results, for the first time...
متن کاملProbing the nuclear obscuration in radio-galaxies with near infrared imaging
We present the first near-infrared (K′-band) homogeneous observations of a complete sub-sample of the 3CR radio catalogue comprising all High Excitation Galaxies (HEGs) at z <0.3. After showing that the surface brightness decomposition technique to measure central point-like sources is affected by significant uncertainties for the objects in the studied sample, we present a new, more accurate m...
متن کاملNuclear obscuration in the high - ionization Seyfert 2 galaxy Tol 0109 – 383
We report the BeppoSAX detection of a hard X-ray excess in the X-ray spectrum of the classical high-ionization Seyfert 2 galaxy Tol 0109–383. The X-ray emission of this source observed below 7 keV is dominated by reflection from both cold and ionized gas, as seen in the ASCA data. The excess hard X-ray emission is presumably due to the central source absorbed by an optically thick obscuring tor...
