The spectrum of the bright Seyfert I galaxy MCG-6-30-15 shows a broad Fe K-alpha emission line, generally interpreted to originate very close to the central black hole which must then have a high spin. The observed X-ray variability is…
MCG-6-30-15 is the archetypal example of a type I active galaxy showing broad "red-wing" emission in its X-ray spectrum at energies below the 6.4 keV Fe K-alpha emission line and a continuum excess above 20 keV. Miller et al. (2008) showed…
We study in detail the GR models of the X-ray spectral variability for various geometries of the X-ray source and with various relativistic effects being the dominant cause of spectral variability. The predicted properties are compared with…
We present analysis and results from the Reflection Grating Spectrometer during the 320 ks XMM observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15. The spectrum is marked by a sharp drop in flux at 0.7 keV which has been interpreted by…
Complexities in the X-ray spectrum of the nearby Seyfert 1.2 galaxy MCG-6-30-15 are commonly interpreted in terms of a broad iron line and the associated Compton reflection hump from the innermost relativistic regions of an accretion disk…
We propose a simple spectral model for the Seyfert 1 Galaxy MCG-6-30-15 that can explain most of the 1 - 40 keV spectral variation by change of the partial covering fraction, similar to the one proposed by Miller et al. (2008). Our spectral…
MCG-6-30-15, at a distance of 37 Mpc (z=0.008), is the archetypical Seyfert 1 galaxy showing very broad Fe K$\alpha$ emission. We present results from a joint NuSTAR and XMM-Newton observational campaign that, for the first time, allows a…
We present a study of the spectral variability of the Seyfert I galaxy MCG-6-30-15 based on the two long XMM-Newton observations from 2000 and 2001. The X-ray spectrum and variability properties of the 2001 data have previously been well…
We present a time-averaged spectral analysis of the 2024 XRISM observation of the narrow-line Seyfert-1 galaxy MCG--6-30-15, taken contemporaneously with XMM-Newton and NuSTAR. Our analysis leverages a unique combination of broadband and…
We apply the light bending model of X-ray variability to Suzaku data of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15. We analyze the energy dependence of the root mean square (rms) variability, and discuss conditions necessary for the model to explain…
The lack of variability of the broad iron line seen in the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15 is studied using the EPIC pn data obtained from a 2001 observation of 325 ks, during which the count rate from the source varied by a factor of 5. The…
Ionized reflection has often been considered as the explanation for the unusual Fe K variability observed in MCG--6-30-15. In this paper, we test this model using a 325 ks observation of MCG--6-30-15 by XMM-Newton and BeppoSAX. The data are…
We present an analysis of the long RXTE observation of the Seyfert~1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15, taken in July 1997. Our results show that the behaviour is complicated. We find clear evidence from colour ratios and direct spectral fitting that…
We report on a 50 ks observation of the bright Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG--6-30-15 with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. The data clearly show the broad fluorescent iron line (equivalent width ~ 250 eV), and the Compton reflection continuum at…
The absorption lines in the soft X-ray spectrum of MCG--6-30-15 are studied using the Reflection Grating Spectrometer data from the 2001 XMM-Newton 320 ks observation. A line search of the full time-averaged spectrum reveals 51 absorption…
The bright Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15 has provided some of the best evidence to date for the existence of supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei. Observations with ASCA revealed an X-ray iron line profile shaped by strong…
We present a multiwaveband spectroscopic study of the nearby Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15. New optical spectra from the Anglo-Australian Telescope are presented which clearly show the effects of dust extinction/reddening on both the…
We have investigated spectral variation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15 observed with Suzaku in January 2006 for three separate periods spreading over fourteen days. We found that the time-averaged continuum energy spectrum between 1…
Suzaku has, for the first time, enabled the hard X-ray variability of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG-6-30-15 to be measured. The variability in the 14-45 keV band, which is dominated by a strong reflection hump, is quenched relative to that at a…
The Chandra HETGS spectra of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG--6-30-15 show numerous narrow, unresolved (FWHM < 200 km/s) absorption lines from a wide range of ionization states of N, O, Mg, Ne, Si, S, Ar, and Fe. The initial analysis of these…
