We show that the Fe (VII-XII) M-shell unresolved transition array (UTA) in the NGC 3783 900 ks Chandra HETGS observation clearly changes in opacity in a timescale of 31 days responding to a factor of 2 change in the ionizing continuum. The…

We present a detailed spectral analysis of the data obtained from NGC 3783 during the period 2000-2001 using Chandra. This analysis leads us to the following results. 1) NGC 3783 fluctuated in luminosity by a factor ~1.5 during individual…

We present a detailed model for the ionized absorbing gas evident in the 900 ksec Chandra HETGS spectrum of NGC 3783. The analysis was carried out with PHASE a new tool designed to model X-ray and UV absorption features in ionized plasmas.…

We present results on the location, physical conditions, and geometry of the outflow in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 from a study of the variable intrinsic UV absorption. Based on 18 observations with HST/STIS and 6 observations with FUSE,…

The Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 was intensely monitored between 1991 December and 1992 August. We present the results from the ground-based observations in the optical and near-IR, which complement the data-set from the IUE, discussed…

NGC 3783 was observed for approximately 210ks by Suzaku and in this time showed significant spectral and flux variability at both short (20ks) and long (100ks) time scales. The full observation is found to consist of approximately six…

We present the results of recent Chandra High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer and Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Origins Spectrograph observations of the nearby Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 which shows a strong, non-varying X-ray warm…

We model the observed X-ray spectral continuum shape, ionic column densities, and absorption measure distribution (AMD) of the warm absorber in the Seyfert galaxy NGC 3783. We assume a photo-ionized medium with a uniform total…

(Abridged) We investigate the ionized environment of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 985 with a new Chandra-HETGS observation and an archival BeppoSAX observation. Two absorption components are clearly required to fit absorption features observed…

We present the analysis of multi-wavelength XMM-Newton data from the Seyfert galaxy NGC 3783, including UV imaging, X-ray and UV lightcurves, the 0.2-10 keV X-ray continuum, the iron K-alpha emission line, and high-resolution spectroscopy…

We present results from a 900 ks exposure of NGC 3783 with the High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer on board the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The resulting X-ray spectrum has the best combination of signal-to-noise and resolution…

The Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 hosts a multiphase warm absorber (WA) that has been extensively studied in the X-ray band. High-resolution spectra from 2000-2001 revealed a complex outflow with multiple ionization and velocity components. Two…

Obscuration of the continuum emission from active galactic nuclei by streams of gas with relatively high velocity (> 1000 km/s) and column density (>3E25 per m2) has been seen in a few Seyfert galaxies. This obscuration has a transient…

We present an investigation into the spectroscopic properties of non-equilibrium photoionization processes operating in a time-evolving mode. Through a quantitative comparison between equilibrium and time-evolving models, we find that the…

We report on the X-ray time resolved spectral analysis of XMM-Newton observations of NGC 3783. The main goal is to detect transient features in the Fe K line complex, in order to study the dynamics of the innermost accretion flow. We…

We present preliminary results from a 900 ks exposure of NGC 3783 with the Chandra/HETGS. This is the best combination of signal-to-noise and resolution ever obtained for an Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN). We resolve the narrow Fe K\alpha…

Context. Obscuration events caused by outflowing clumps or streams of high column density, low ionisation gas, heavily absorbing the X-ray continuum, have been witnessed in a number of Seyfert galaxies. Aims. We report on the X-ray…

In 2016 we carried out a Swift monitoring program to track the X-ray hardness variability of eight type-I AGN over a year. The purpose of this monitoring was to find intense obscuration events in AGN, and thereby study them by triggering…

We analyze a 900-ks stacked Chandra/HETG spectrum of NGC 3783 in the context of magnetically-driven accretion-disk wind models in an effort to provide tight constraints on the global conditions of the underlying absorbers. Motivated by the…

Our Swift monitoring program triggered two joint XMM-Newton, NuSTAR and HST observations on 11 and 21 December 2016 targeting NGC 3783, as its soft X-ray continuum was heavily obscured. Consequently, emission features, including the O VII…
