In a previous paper (Henri & Petrucci, hereafter paper I), we have derived a new model in order to explain the UV and X-ray emission of radio quiet AGNs. This model assumes that a point source of relativistic leptons (e+,e-) illuminates the…
We present a new model of accretion disk where the disk luminosity is entirely due to the reprocessing of hard radiation impinging on the disk. The hard radiation itself is emitted by a hot point source above the disk, that could be…
