Gamma-ray emitting narrow-line Seyfert 1 ($gamma$-NLSy1) galaxies are thought to harbour relatively low-mass black holes (10$^6$-10$^8$ M$_{odot}$) accreting close to the Eddington limit. They show characteristics similar to those of blazars, such as flux and spectral variability in the gamma-ray energy band and radio properties which point toward the presence of a relativistic jet. These characteristics make them an intriguing class of sources to be investigated with the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA), the next-generation ground-based gamma-ray observatory. We present our extensive set of simulations of all currently known $gamma$-ray emitters identified as NLS1s (20 sources),investigating their detections and spectral properties, taking into account the effect of both the extra-galactic background light in the propagation of gamma-rays and intrinsic absorption components.We find that the prospects for observations of $gamma$-NLSy1 with CTA are promising. In particular, the brightest sources of our sample, SBS 0846+513, PMN J0948+0022, and PKS 1502+036 can be detected during high/flaring states, the former two even in the case in which the emission occurs within the highly opaque central regions, which prevent $gamma$ rays above few tens of GeV to escape. In this case the low-energy threshold of CTA will play a key role. If, on the other hand, high-energy emission occurs outside the broad line region, we can detect the sources up to several hundreds of GeV-depending on the intrinsic shape of the emitted spectrum. Therefore, CTA observations will provide valuable information on the physical conditions and emission properties of their jets.
Gamma-ray emitting narrow-line Seyfert 1 ($gamma$-NLS1) galaxies possibly harbour relatively low-mass black holes (10$^6$-10$^8$ M$_{odot}$) accreting close to the Eddington limit, and share many characteristics with their sibling sources, flat-spect
Gamma rays at rest frame energies as high as 90 GeV have been reported from gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). There is considerable hope that a confirmed GRB detection will be possible with the upcoming Cherenkov Telesc
We report the analysis of all Swift observations available up to 2019 April of $gamma$-ray-emitting narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLSy1). The distribution of X-ray luminosities (and fluxes) indicates that the jet radiation significantly contributes
The recent detection of gamma-ray emission from four radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies suggests that the engine driving the AGN activity of these objects share some similarities with that of blazars, namely the presence of a gamma-ray emittin
Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) is one of the few classes of active galactic nuclei (AGN) harboring powerful relativistic jets and detected in $gamma$ rays. NLS1s are well-known X-ray sources. While in non-jetted sources the origin of this X-r
