X-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 کاملDecoupling absorption and continuum variability in the Seyfert 2 NGC 4507
We present the results of the Suzaku observation of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4507. This source is one of the X-ray brightest Compton-thin Seyfert 2s and a candidate for a variable absorber. Suzaku caught NGC 4507 in a highly absorbed state characterized by a high column density (NH ∼ 8 × 1023 cm−2), a strong reflected component (R ∼ 1.9) and a high equivalent width Fe Kα emission line (EW ∼ 500...
متن کاملThe rapid X - ray variability of NGC 4051 2491
We present an analysis of the high-frequency X-ray variability of NGC 4051 (MBH ∼ 1.7 × 106 M ) based on a series of XMM–Newton observations taken in 2009 with a total exposure of ∼570 ks (EPIC pn). These data reveal the form of the power spectrum over frequencies from 10−4 Hz, below the previously detected power spectral break, to 10−2 Hz, above the frequency of the innermost stable circular o...
متن کاملDetection of soft gamma - ray emission from the Seyfert IIgalaxy NGC 4507 by the OSSE
We report the rst soft gamma-ray observation by the OSSE experiment onboard the CGRO of the optically selected Seyfert II galaxy, NGC 4507. The source was observed on two separate weeks in 1993 and detected between 50 and 200 keV at a conndence level of 7. There is no evidence of ux variability within or between the two observation periods which sample timescales from days to months. The source...
متن کاملX-ray Variability during the Quiescent State of the Neutron Star X-ray Transient in the Globular Cluster Ngc 6440
The globular cluster NGC 6440 is known to harbor a bright neutron star X-ray transient. We observed the globular cluster with Chandra on two occasions when the bright transient was in its quiescent state, in 2000 July and 2003 June (both observations were made nearly 2 yr after the end of their preceding outbursts). The quiescent spectrum during the first observation is well represented by a tw...
