We report on the first observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC4593 in the 0.1-200 keV band, performed with the BeppoSAX observatory. Its spectral components are for the first time simultaneously measured: a power-law with photon spectral index ~1.9; the Compton-reflection of the primary power-law; a moderately broad (>60 eV) K-alpha fluorescent line from neutral iron; and an absorption edge, whose threshold energy is consistent with K-shell photoionization from OVII. The amount of reflection and the iron line properties are consistent with both being produced in a plane-parallel, X-ray illuminated relativistic accretion disc surrounding the nuclear black hole, seen at an inclination of 30 degrees. Any cutoff of the intrinsic continuum is constrained to lay above 150 keV. The claim for a strongly variable soft excess is dismissed by our data and by a reanalysis of archival ASCA and ROSAT data.
The X-ray pulsar Her X-1 was observed for more than two orbital cycles near the maximum of the 35 day X-ray intensity cycle by the Narrow Field Instruments on-board the BeppoSAX satellite. We present the first simultaneous measurement of the 0.1-200
The bright BL Lac object PKS 2005-489 was observed by BeppoSAX on November 1-2, 1998, following an active X-ray state detected by RossiXTE. The source, detected between 0.1 and 200 keV, was in a very high state with a continuum well fitted by a steep
The Seyfert 2 galaxies NGC 2992 and NGC 3081 have been observed by INTEGRAL and Swift. We report about the results and the comparison of the spectrum above 10 keV based on INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI, Swift/BAT, and BeppoSAX/PDS. A spectrum can be extracted
Recent radio VLBI observations of the ~parsec-scale nuclear region of the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 hint toward the presence of outflowing plasma. From available literature we have collected high-quality, high-resolution broadband spectra
Beginning in 1999 January, the bright, strongly variable Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy Akn 564 has been observed by RXTE once every ~4.3 days. It was also monitored every ~3.2 hr throughout 2000 July. These evenly-sampled observations have allo
