The 10 – 200 μ m spectral energy distribution of the prototype narrow - line X - ray galaxy NGC 7582 ?

چکیده
We present the spectral energy distribution (SED) between 10 and 200 μm obtained for the prototype narrowline X-ray galaxy NGC 7582 with ISOPHOT, the photometer on board the Infrared Space Observatory. The emission is spatially extended and we separated for the first time the nuclear and extranuclear infrared SEDs. The nuclear luminosity (LIR ∼ 4.5 × 1010 L ) is dominated by cold (T ∼ 32 K) dust emission mainly due to star formation activity; warm (T ∼ 122 K) dust emission is also present and is probably related to the active nucleus. In addition to a cold component of 30 K, the extranuclear SED (LIR ∼ 1.7 × 1010 L ) shows emission by colder (T ∼ 17 K) dust: this very cold component comprises 90% of the total dust mass of 9.8 × 107 M .

متن کاملThe IR spectral energy distribution of the Seyfert 2 prototype NGC
The complete midto farinfrared continuum energy distribution collected with the Infrared Space Observatory of the Seyfert 2 prototype NGC 5252 is presented. ISOCAM images taken in the 3–15 μm show a resolved central source that is consistent at all bands with a region of about 1.3 kpc in size. Due to the lack of on going star formation in the disk of the galaxy, this resolved emission is associ...

We present a high-resolution (R ≈ 16, 000) spectrum and a narrow-band image centered on the [Ne ]12.8 µm line of the central kpc region of the starburst/Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 7582. The galaxy has a rotating circum-nuclear starburst disk, shown at great detail at a diffraction-limited resolution of 0. ′′ 4 (≈ 40 pc). The high spatial resolution allows us to probe the dynamics of the [Ne ] gas...
متن کاملType 2 Counterparts of Narrow - Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies
Unified models of Seyfert galaxies, based on viewing angles, successfully explain the observed differences between type 1 and 2 Seyferts. The existence of a range in accretion rates (ṁ ∼ 0.001− 1) relative to the Eddington rate (from broad-line Seyfert 1s to narrow-line Seyfert 1s or NLS1s) and the unification of Seyfert galaxies imply that there must be type 2 counterparts of NLS1 galaxies i.e...

This paper presents a BeppoSAX observation of NGC 7582 made during 1998 November and an optical spectrum taken in 1998 October. The new X-ray data reveal a previously unknown hard X-ray component in NGC 7582, peaking close to 20 keV. Rapid variability is observed with correlated changes in the 5-10 and 13-60 keV bands indicating that a single continuum component, produced by the active nucleus,...
