Evidence for an intermediate mass black hole and a multi-zone warm absorber in NGC 4395 [PDF]
, 2003 We report on the results of an analysis in the X-ray band of a recent long ASCA observation of NGC 4395, the most variable low-luminosity AGN known. A relativistically-broadened iron line at ~6.4 keV is clearly resolved in the time-averaged spectrum ...
