This paper combines data from the three preceding papers in order to analyze the multi-waveband variability and spectral energy distribution of the Seyfert~1 galaxy NGC~4151 during the December 1993 monitoring campaign. The source, which…
We present the variability study of the lowest-luminosity Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4395 based on the photometric monitoring campaigns in 2017 and 2018. Using 22 ground-based and space telescopes, we monitored NGC 4395 with a $\sim$5 minute…
We have analyzed a long-look Suzaku observation of the Seyfert 1.2 Mkn~590. We aimed to measure the Compton reflection strength, Fe K complex properties and soft excess emission as had been observed previously in this source. The Compton…
We present a study of the core of the Fe Ka emission line at ~6.4 keV in a sample of type II Seyfert galaxies observed by the Chandra High Energy Grating (HEG). The sample consists of 29 observations of 10 unique sources. We present…
We present {\it ASCA} observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxies Mrk~1040 and MS~0225.5+3121. Mrk~1040 was found to have decreased in flux by almost a factor of 4 since an {\it EXOSAT} observation 10\,years ago. The energy spectrum of Mrk~1040…
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…
Many AGN exhibit a highly variable luminosity. Some AGN also show a pronounced time delay between variations seen in their optical continuum and in their emission lines. In effect, the emission lines are light echoes of the continuum. This…
We present results on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC4388 in the Virgo cluster observed with ASCA during its PV phase. The 0.5-10 keV X-ray spectrum consists of multiple components; (1) a continuum component heavily absorbed by a column density NH…
We report the transition to an active state of the nucleus in the Seyfert 1.9 galaxy NGC 2992, discovered by means of new hard X-ray data. While the 2-10 keV flux declined by a factor of ~ 20 from 1978 to 1994, two recent BeppoSAX…
We present the results of the long-term (20-year period, from 1996 to 2015) optical spectral monitoring of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 7469. The variation in the light-curves of the broad He II {\lambda}4686A H{\beta} and H{\alpha} lines, and…
In this paper, we investigated the Fe K-shell lines in the supernova remnant W51C and hard X-ray sources in the proximity. We measured the intensities of Fe I K$\alpha$ and Fe XXV He$\alpha$ lines at 6.40 keV and 6.68 keV, respectively, and…
We present the first unambiguous evidence of a broad (Gaussian width ~330 eV) component of the iron K-alpha fluorescent emission line in the X-ray obscured Narrow Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy NGC5506. This is the main results of a spectroscopic…
Narrow Fe K$\alpha$ fluorescent emission lines arising at $\sim$kpc-scale separations from the nucleus have only been detected in a few AGN. The detections require that the extended line emission be spatially resolved and sufficiently…
We present the result of a study of the X-ray emission from the Galactic Centre (GC) Molecular Clouds (MC) within 15 arcmin from Sgr A*. We use XMM-Newton data (about 1.2 Ms of observation time) spanning about 8 years. The MC spectra show…
shortened) Results obtained from 9 X-ray observations of 3C 273 performed by ASCA are presented (for a total exposure time of about 160 000 s). The analysis and interpretation of the results is complicated by the fact that 4 of these…
We systematically analyzed the high-quality Suzaku data of 88 Seyfert galaxies. We obtained a clear relation between the absorption column density and the equivalent width of the 6.4 keV line above 10$^{23}$ cm$^{-2}$, suggesting a…
We present measurements of the Fe-K line for nine Seyfert I galaxies using Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) data. The centroid energies are narrowly dispersed (6.403 +/- 0.062 keV) and indicate an origin of the…
In this work we have investigated short time-scale variability of NGC 4051 and NGC 4388. The quasi-steady QPO's time scale of 3920$\pm$17 sec was detected for NGC 4051. For the case of NGC 4388 we investigated rapid variability of the…
We present new results from a Chandra HETG observation of NGC 5548 and give a comparison of absorption and emission features found in other Seyfert 1 galaxies using Chandra grating observations. Deep soft X-ray edges are seen in Mkn 509 and…
Broad Fe K-alpha emission lines have recently been reported in a number of Galactic black holes. Such lines are useful accretion flow diagnostics because they may be produced at the inner accretion disk and shaped by relativistic effects,…
