An emission line at ~6.7 keV is attributable to a He-like iron K-shell transition, which indicates existence of a thin thermal plasma with a temperature of several keV. Using Suzaku archival data, we searched for the iron K-line from the…
In order to elucidate origin of the Galactic Ridge X-ray Emission, we analyzed Suzaku data taken at various regions along the Galactic plane and studied their Fe-K emission line features. Suzaku resolved the Fe line complex into three…
We present an analysis of the 101 ks, 2007 Suzaku spectrum of the LINER galaxy NGC 1052. The 0.5-10 keV continuum is well-modeled by a power-law modified by Galactic and intrinsic absorption, and it exhibits a soft, thermal emission…
We present spectral and timing results from a long (130 ks) XMM-NEWTON EPIC observation of the nucleus of the Seyfert/LINER galaxy M 81. During the observation the X-ray flux varied by 20%, but there was no significant change in spectral…
We examine the properties of the diffuse hard X-ray emission in the classic starburst galaxy M82. We use new Chandra ACIS-S observations in combination with reprocessed archival Chandra ACIS-I and XMM-Newton observations. We find E~6.7 keV…
Diffuse X-rays from the Galactic center (GC) region were found to exhibit many K-shell lines from iron and nickel atoms in the 6--9 keV band. The strong emission lines seen in the spectrum are neutral iron K$\alpha$ at 6.4~keV, He-like iron…
The radio complex Sgr B region is observed with the X-Ray Imaging Spectrometers (XIS) on board Suzaku. This region exhibits diffuse iron lines at 6.4, 6.7 and 6.9 keV, which are K$\alpha$ lines of Fe \emissiontype{I} (neutral iron),…
Iron K-alpha lines are key diagnostics of the central regions of AGN. Their profiles indicate that they are formed deep in the potential well of the central black hole, where extreme broadening and red shift occur. The profiles are most…
We have detected an emission line feature at 4 keV in the X-ray emission from a sky region including the distant radio galaxy 3C220.1(z=0.62) obtained with ASCA. The line energy is 6.1 - 7.0 keV (90% confidence) in the rest frame of…
We present the results of an ASCA observation of the LINER NGC 4579. A point-like X-ray source is detected at the nucleus with a 2-10 keV luminosity of 1.5x10^41 ergs/s assuming a distance of 16.8 Mpc. The X-ray spectrum is represented by a…
We present a study of the X-ray properties of the nearby face-on Scd spiral galaxy M101 based on recent XMM-Newton observations. In this third and final paper in the present series, we focus on the spatial and spectral properties of the…
An object discovered during an infrared survey of the field near the quasar B2 0149+33 has an emission line at 2.25$\mu$m that we interpret as H$\alpha$ at a redshift of 2.43. The K-band image shows two compact components 10 kpc apart…
The ASCA results of the starburst galaxy M82 are presented. The X-rays in the 0.5--10 keV band exhibit a thin thermal spectrum with emission lines from highly ionized magnesium, silicon, and sulfur, as well as a hard tail extending to…
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 detected an emission line feature at 4 keV in the X-ray spectrum of a sky region including the distant radio galaxy 3C220.1(z=0.62) obtained with ASCA. The line energy is 6.1 - 7.0 keV (90% confidence) in the rest frame of 3C220.1.…
We model thermal X-ray emission from the accreting supermassive black hole Sagittarius A* at the Galactic Center. For the region inside $1.^{\prime\prime}5$ of the center, we use a {generalized} radiatively inefficient accretion flow (RIAF)…
We report on the variability of the iron K emission line in the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG--6-30-15 during a four-day ASCA observation. The line consists of a narrow core at an energy of about 6.4 keV, and a broad red wing extending to below 5…
We present a high resolution X-ray spectrum of the iron K bandpass in MCG-6-30-15 based on a 522 ksec observation with Chandra's High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer. The Chandra spectrum is consistent with the presence of a…
In active galactic nuclei (AGN), fluorescent Fe K$\alpha$ (iron) line emission is generally interpreted as originating from obscuring material around a supermassive black hole (SMBH) on the scale of a few parsecs (pc). However, recent…
We report the diffuse X-ray emissions from the Sgr A and B regions observed with Suzaku. From the Sgr A region, we found many K-shell transition lines of iron and nickel. The brightest are K alpha lines from FeI, FeXXV and FeXXVI at 6.4…
