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,…
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 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…
(abridged) The high-resolution X-ray spectrum of NGC 3783 shows several dozen absorption lines and a few emission lines from the H-like and He-like ions of O, Ne, Mg, Si, and S as well as from Fe XVII - Fe XXIII L-shell transitions. We have…
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…
We present observations of the intrinsic absorption in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 obtained with the STIS/HST and FUSE. We have coadded multiple STIS and FUSE observations to obtain a high S/N averaged spectrum spanning 905-1730 A. The…
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 the first grating-resolution X-ray spectra of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783, obtained with the High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. These spectra reveal many narrow absorption lines from…
To understand the nature of transient obscuring outflows in active galactic nuclei, we observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783 on two occasions in December 2016 triggered by Swift monitoring indicating strong soft X-ray absorption in…
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…
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…

We re-analyzed the 9 observations performed on 2006 by XMM-Newton and Chandra in the 0.3 to 10 keV energy band of NGC 3516 (Seyfert 1.5). The best fit model of these observations consists of a continuum emission absorbed by four ionized…
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…
Warm Absorbers (WAs), as an important form of AGN outflows, show absorption in both UV and X-ray band. Using XSTAR generated photoionization models, for the first time we present a joint fit to the simultaneous observations of HST/COS and…
(Abridged) Many active galactic nuclei exhibit X-ray features typical of the highly ionized gas called "Warm Absorber" (WA). Such a material appears to be stratified, displaying zones of different density, temperature, and ionization. In…
