We report our analysis of X-ray spectra of the Seyfert galaxy IRAS 18325-5926 (=Fairall 49) obtained from various X-ray observatories prior to XMM-Newton, including new results from two RXTE and one BeppoSAX observations. A relatively steep…
We present a catalog of Local Universe Near-Infrared Seyfert (LUNIS) \textit{K-}band integral field unit (IFU) data of 88 nearby Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), curated from SINFONI/VLT and OSIRIS/Keck archival datasets. This catalog includes…
The Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC4151 is characterized by complex X-ray absorption, well described by a dual absorber, composed of a uniform mildly ionized gas and a cold system that partially covers the central source. However, in one of the 5…
The origin and the profile of the iron K-alpha line from active galactic nuclei is being studied. The model with a quasi-spherical distribution of clouds around a compact galactic nucleus is explored in which the intrinsic spectral feature…
We present optical spectroscopic observations of 93 galaxies taken from the infra-red selected COLA (Compact Objects in Low Power AGN) sample. The sample spans the range of far-IR luminosities from normal galaxies to LIRGs. Of the galaxies…
The relation between the X-ray, the coronal line and the infrared (IR) emissions in a sample of the brightest known Seyfert galaxies is analysed. A close relationship between the absorption-corrected soft X-ray emission and both the mid-IR…
We analyse the properties of the CIV broad emission line in connection with the X-ray emission of 30 bright SDSS quasars at z~3.0-3.3 with pointed XMM-Newton observations, which were selected to test the suitability of AGN as cosmological…
We analyse the data from the optical/IUE observational campaign of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 5548 in the context of 10 phenomenological models. On the basis of the optical/UV data as well as constraints from the X-ray observations we can…
We present low resolution mid infrared spectra of 16 ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) obtained with the CVF spectroscopy mode of ISOCAM on board the Infrared Space Observatory ISO. Our sample completes previous ISO spectroscopy of…
We present simultaneous ASCA and RXTE observations of Ark 564, the brightest known ``narrow-line'' Seyfert 1 in the 2-10 keV band. The measured X-ray spectrum is dominated by a steep (Gamma~2.7) power-law continuum extending to at least 20…
We present results from the optical, ultraviolet and X-ray monitoring of the NLS1 galaxy IRAS 13224-3809 taken with Swift and XMM-Newton during 2016. IRAS 13224-3809 is the most variable bright AGN in the X-ray sky and shows strong X-ray…
We present the results of deep spectropolarimetry of two powerful radio galaxies at $z\sim2.5$ (4C 00.54 and 4C 23.56) obtained with the W.M. Keck II 10m telescope, aimed at studying the relative contribution of the stellar and non-stellar…
All the observations available in the Chandra and XMM-Newton archives have been used to investigate the X-ray spectral properties of 3C 33. In this paper is presented a complete X-ray analysis of the nuclear emission of this narrow line…
Aims. We seek a comprehensive analysis of all the information provided by the XMM-Newton satellite of the four Seyfert 1 galaxies ESO 359-G19, HE 1143-1810, CTS A08.12, and Mrk 110, including the UV range, to characterize the different…
We observed the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 on eleven occasions at 1-2 day intervals using the Berkeley spectrometer during the ORFEUS-SPAS II mission in 1996 November. The mean spectrum covers 912-1220 A at ~0.3 A resolution with a total…
We consider a model in which the narrow line regions (NLRs) of Seyfert galaxies are photoionized ``in situ'' by fast (300 -- 1,000 km/s), radiative shock waves driven into the interstellar medium of the galaxy by radio jets from the active…
We present mid-infrared data of a sample of 57 AGNs obtained with the instrument ISOCAM on board the satellite ISO. The images were obtained through the LW2 (6.75 microns) and LW7 (9.62 microns) filters. This is a new analysis of Clavel et…
(Abridged) We present an analysis of a 10-day continuous ASCA observation of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy IRAS 13224-3809. The soft (0.7-1.3 keV) and hard (1.3-10 keV) X-ray band light curves binned to 5000s reveal trough-to-peak…
The first X-ray observation of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC5252 is reported. ASCA collected $\sim 4000$ photons/detector enough to perform an accurate spectral analysis of this source. The luminosity of NGC5252 is L$_{\rm X}$(0.7-10 keV)…
In the powerful, high redshift radio galaxies, it is believed that the dominant source of ionization for the interstellar gas is the hard radiation field associated with the active nucleus. The photon source is generally external to the…
