We present the first NuSTAR observation of a 'true' Type 2 Seyfert galaxy. The 3-40 keV X-ray spectrum of NGC3147 is characterised by a simple power-law, with a standard {\Gamma}~1.7 and an iron emission line, with no need for any further…

We attempt to determine the nature of the high energy emission of the radio galaxy 3C 111, by distinguishing between the effects of the thermal and non-thermal processes. We study the X-ray spectrum of 3C 111 between 0.4 keV and 200 keV,…

The first short part of this review is a general, but very detailed, critique of the literature advocating a class of Seyfert galaxies intrinsically lacking broad emission lines. My conclusion is that there is little or no evidence for such…

Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1) are very interesting objects which display peculiar properties when compared to their broad line analogues (BLS1). Although well studied in many wavebands, their behaviour at >10 keV is poorly studied…

We present X-ray observations of the ultraluminous infrared galaxy, UGC 5101, thought to contain a buried active galactic nucleus (AGN) based on observations in other wavebands. We detected an absorbed hard component at >3 keV, as well as…

XMM-Newton observed the Seyfert 1.9 galaxy NGC 4258 in December 2000. At energies above 2 keV a hard nuclear point source is resolved that can be fitted by a highly absorbed power-law spectrum (NH = (8.0+-0.4)x10^22 cm^-2, photon index…
