The Hot and Energetic Universe: The close environments of supermassive black holes
Michal Dovciak,Christopher S. Reynolds,Delphine Porquet,Andreas Zezas,Kazushi Iwasawa,Erin Kara,Jon M. Miller,Rene W. Goosmann,Andrew J. Young,Barbara De Marco,Guido Risaliti,Gabriele Ponti,Antonino D'Ai,Giovanni Miniutti,Tiziana Di Salvo,Thomas Boller,Stefano Bianchi,Michal Bursa,Giorgio Matt,Vladimir Karas,Laura Brenneman,Agata Różańska,Luca Zampieri,Pierre-Olivier Petrucci,I.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the time lags between reflected and primary photons to map the disk-corona system, which is crucial to understand the mechanism of energy extraction and the relation of the corona with winds and jets.

An Obscured, Seyfert 2-like State of the Stellar-mass Black Hole GRS 1915+105 Caused by Failed Disk Winds
Jonah Miller,Abderahmen Zoghbi,John C. Raymond,M. Balakrishnan,Laura Brenneman,Edward M. Cackett,Paul A. Draghis,Andrew C. Fabian,Elena Gallo,Jelle Kaastra,Timothy R. Kallman,E. Kammoun,Sara Motta,Daniel Proga,Mark Reynolds,N. Trueba +15 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Chandra gratings spectra of the stellar-mass black hole GRS 1915+105 obtained during a novel, highly obscured state were obtained, and it was shown that the wind is blue-shifted when its column density is relatively low, but redshifted as it approaches the Compton-thick threshold.
Journal ArticleDOI
An X-ray Spectral Analysis of the Central Regions of NGC 4593
TL;DR: In this article, a detailed analysis of XMM-Newton EPIC-pn data for the Seyfert-1 galaxy NGC 4593 is presented, where the authors show that the soft excess is best described as originating from thermal Comptonization by plasma that is appreciably cooler than the primary X-ray emitting plasma.

TL;DR: In this article, Chandra/ACIS-I X-ray image and spectra of NGC 3603 are presented, accompanied by deep cm-wavelength ATCA radio image at similar or less than 1 inch spatial resolution, and HST/ground-based optical data.
Journal ArticleDOI
