چکیده
We present spectral results from a multi-satellite, broad-band campaign on the Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Ton S180 performed at the end of 1999. We discuss the spectral-energy distribution of the source, combining simultaneous Chan-dra, ASCA and EUVE data with contemporaneous FUSE, HST, and ground-based optical and infra-red data. The resulting SED shows that most of the energy is emitted in the 10 – 100 eV regime, which must be dominated by the primary energy source. No spectral turnover is evident in the UV regime. This, the strong soft X-ray emission, and the overall shape of the SED indicate that emission from the accretion disk peaks between 15 and 100 eV. High resolution – 2 – FUSE spectra showing UV absorption due to Ovi and the lack of detectable X-ray absorption in the Chandra spectrum demonstrate the presence of a low column density of highly ionized gas along our line-of-sight. The highly-ionized state of the circumnuclear gas is most likely linked to the high luminosity and steep spectrum of the active nucleus. Given the strong ionizing flux in Ton S180, it is possible that the clouds within a few tens of light days of the central source are too highly ionized to produce much line emission. Thus the narrow width of the emission lines in Ton S180 is due to the emission arising from large radii.

We discuss the origin of the " dusty lukewarm absorber " , which we previously identified in the reddened Seyfert 1 galaxies NGC 3227 and Akn 564. This absorber is characterized by saturated UV absorption lines (C IV, N V) near the systemic velocity of the host galaxy, and is likely responsible for reddening both the continuum and the emission lines (including those from the narrow-line region)...

We report on BeppoSAX broad band (0.1-100 keV) observations of bright Seyfert 2 galaxies and discuss the results in the framework of the unified theory of AGNs. The data are used to probe N H distribution in type 2 objects and to identify heavily absorbed (10 24 ≤ N H ≤ 10 25 cm −2) sources, which are particularly bright in hard X-rays. They also provide, for the first time, high energy spectra...

We present the results of a galaxy redshift survey in the central region of the Shapley Concentration. Our total sample contains ∼ 2000 radial velocities of galaxies both in the clusters and in the inter-cluster field. We reconstruct the density profile of this supercluster, calculate its overdensity and total mass. Moreover we detect a massive structure behind the Shapley Concentration, at ∼ 3...
