X-rays from active galactic nuclei ? Hard component

Space Science Reviews, 1981
It is now well known that X-ray emission in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is a fairly common phenomenon (see M.J. Rees’s review in this volume). By examining the recent observational information from Ariel V, HEAO-1, and the Einstein Observatory, we have reached the conclusion (Tsuruta 1981) that the following interpretation may be used as a relevant ...

X-Ray Weak Active Galactic Nuclei from Super-Eddington Accretion onto Infant Black Holes

Astrophysical Journal Letters
A simple model for the X-ray weakness of James Webb Space Telescope–selected broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is proposed under the assumption that the majority of these sources are fed at super-Eddington accretion rates. In these conditions, the

Stacking X-Ray Observations of “Little Red Dots”: Implications for Their Active Galactic Nucleus Properties

Astrophysical Journal Letters
Recent James Webb Space Telescope observations have revealed a population of compact extragalactic objects at z ≳ 4 with red near-infrared colors, which have been dubbed as “Little Red Dots” (LRDs).

Hard X-rays emission from active galactic nuclei

Advances in Space Research, 1984
Abstract The X-Rays emission from Active Galactic Nuclei has been known since the first observations obtained by Uhuru. their X-Rays spectra are determining to investigate the radiation process and for the diffuse X-Rays background problem. We will present spectral observations of AGN's in the range 20–100 KeV obtained with a one square meter area ...

X-ray timing studies of Active Galactic Nuclei

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
We present a power spectral analysis survey of 24 active galactic nuclei (AGN). We combine X‐ray observations to produce a power spectrum covering a broad range of Fourier frequencies and fit the power spectrum of each AGN using a single‐bend power‐law model.

X-Ray Variability in Active Galactic Nuclei

1998
X-ray variability is a distinguishing property of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and the energetics and time scales of the emission dictate that the X-rays must originate very close to the central engine. In this review I discuss two basic topics from AGN variability research.
