Origin of X-ray Spectral Variation and the Seemingly Broad Iron-Line Spectral Feature in Seyfert Galaxies

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
We present systematic X-ray data analysis of the Seyfert galaxies observed by Suzaku to study origin of their hard X-ray (2 - 40 keV) variations. In particular, we examine if the "Variable Partial Covering (VPC) model" proposed by Miyakawa, Ebisawa and ...

A complete sample of Seyfert galaxies selected at 1/4 keV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We have used the ROSAT Bright Source Catalogue to extract a complete sample of sources selected in the band from 0.1-0.4 keV. This 1/4 keV-selected sample is comprised of 54 Seyfert galaxies, 25 BL Lacertae objects, 4 clusters and 27 Galactic stars or ...

Recent Results from the SAFIR Project

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2014
The "Seyfert and star formation Activity in the Far-Infrared" (SAFIR) project is aimed at studying the physical nature of the nuclear IR emission and star formation properties of a small sample of nearby Seyfert galaxies observed with the PACS and SPIRE ...

Radial Velocity Offsets Due to Mass Outflows and Extinction in Active Galactic Nuclei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present a study of the radial velocity offsets between narrow emission lines and host galaxy lines (stellar absorption and H I 21-cm emission) in Seyfert galaxies with observed redshifts less than 0.043.

The Narrow‐Line Region of Seyfert Galaxies: Narrow‐Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies versus Broad‐Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2001
It is known that the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the nuclear radiation of narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) has different shapes with respect to that of ordinary broad-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (BLS1s), particularly in wavelengths of X-ray.

Unabsorbed Seyfert 2 galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2002
We present a sample of 17 type 2 Seyfert galaxies which have an X-ray column density lower than 10^{22} cm^{-2}. The Compton thin nature of these sources is strongly suggested by isotropic indicators. We estimate the fraction of these sources to be in the range of 10% - 30% of the population of type 2 Seyfert galaxies.

What We Talk about When We Talk about Blazars?

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
After the discovery of powerful relativistic jets from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies, and the understanding of their similarity with those of blazars, a problem of terminology was born.

Optical Properties of Two Complementary Samples of Intermediate Seyfert Galaxies

open access: yesPhysics, 2023
We present first results of the analysis of optical spectra of two complementary samples of Seyfert galaxies (Seyferts). The first sample was extracted from a selection of the 4th Fermi Gamma-ray Large Area Telescope (4FGL) catalog and consists of 11 γ ...

Large-Scale Environment Properties of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies at z < 0.4

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
The large-scale environment is believed to affect the evolution and intrinsic properties of galaxies. It offers a new perspective on narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1) which have not been extensively studied in this context before.

The Seyfert Population in the Local Universe

open access: yes, 2003
The magnitude-limited catalog of the Southern Sky Redshift Survey (SSRS2), is used to characterize the properties of galaxies hosting Active Galactic Nuclei.
