We present the first analysis of the X-ray warm absorber and nuclear obscuration in the Seyfert 1.8 galaxy ESO 113-G010. We used archival data from a 100 ks XMM-Newton observation made in 2005. From high resolution spectroscopy analysis of…
We study the variability of the warm absorber and the gas responsible for the emission lines in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548, in order to constrain the location and physical properties of these components. Using X-ray spectra taken with…
Warm absorber (WA) is an ionised gas present in the line of sight to the AGN central engine. The effect of the absorber is imprinted in the absorption lines observed in X-ray spectra of AGN. In this work, we model the WA in Seyfert 1 galaxy…
The aim of this paper is to study the variability of the warm absorber "clouds of ionised gas within AGN", for the Seyfert 1 galaxies Arakelian 564. The X-ray spectra for four XMM-Newton observations of this object are analysed in EPIC and…
High resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the warm absorber in the nearby X-ray bright Seyfert 1 galaxy, Mrk 1040 is presented. The observations were carried out in the 2013-2014 timeframe using the Chandra High Energy Transmission Grating with…
We present a study of the X-ray properties of several NLS1 galaxies, focusing on their warm absorbers. In the first part, we discuss properties of dusty and dust-free warm absorbers in NLS1s, and study their potential contribution to…
Warm absorbers are an important new probe of the central region of active galaxies (AGN). Observing and modeling this component provides a wealth of information on the nature of the warm absorber itself, its relation to other components of…
In recent years it has become clear that understanding the absorption present in AGN is essential given its bearing on unification models. We present the most recent XMM-Newton observation of Mrk 6, with the goal of understanding the nature…
We have discovered a correlation between the X-ray absorbing column densities within Seyfert galaxies and the relative alignment between the central engines and their host galactic disks. This correlation carries several implications for…
We present a detailed study of the ionised environment of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 704 using medium and high resolution X-ray spectra obtained with a long XMM-Newton observation. The 0.3-10 kev continuum, well described by a power-law…
We conduct an in-depth spectral analysis of $\sim1{\rm ~Ms}$ XMM-Newton data of the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy RE J1034+396. The long exposure ensures high spectral quality and provides us with a detailed look at the intrinsic absorption…
We present results of the photoionization code IRIS, which calculates the spectrum emitted by the Warm Absorber (WA) in Seyfert 1 galaxies for a large grid of parameters (density, column density, ionization parameter...). We show that in…
(Abridged) The archetypal Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548 was observed in 2013-2014 in the context of an extensive multiwavelength campaign, which revealed the source to be in an extraordinary state of persistent heavy obscuration. We re-analyzed…
We present a spectral analysis of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy I Zwicky 1, focusing on the characteristics of the ionised absorbers as observed with XMM-Newton in 2005. The soft X-ray spectrum shows absorption by two components of…
We investigated, using spectral-timing analysis, the characterization of highly ionized outflows in Seyfert galaxies, the so-called warm absorbers. Here, we present our results on the extensive ~ 600 ks of XMM-Newton archival observations…
We present a new analysis of the soft and medium energy X-ray spectrum of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3516 taken with the Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) and European Photon Imaging Camera (EPIC) on board the XMM-Newton observatory. We…
We report on the performance of the statistical, X-ray absorption lines identification procedure XLINE-ID. As illustration, it is used to estimate the time averaged gas density $n_H(r)$ of a representative AGN's warm absorber ($T\approx…
The connection between the coronal lines and the warm absorber is examined systematically. In an earlier work it was found that the coronal line emitting plasma and the warm absorber gas share the same density and temperature. If there is a…
This paper is a sequel to the extensive study of warm absorber (WA) in X-rays carried out using high resolution grating spectral data from XMM-Newton satellite (WAX-I). Here we discuss the global dynamical properties as well as the…
We have analyzed survey and pointed \ros PSPC observations of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 3227. Large amplitude X-ray variability is detected, with a factor $\sim$ 15 change in count rate within about 3 years. Smaller changes are seen on the…
