X-ray Studies of the Central Engine in Active Galactic Nuclei with Suzaku
Singapore : Springer Singapore : Imprint: Springer, 2016
Abstract/Sommario:
The aim of this research was to use the X-ray satellite Suzaku to establish a picture of a central engine that effectively converts the gravitational energy of accreting matter onto the supermassive black hole to a huge amount of radiation in an active galactic nucleus. Although the engine is known to consist of a Comptonizing corona and an accretion disk, its image has remained unclear because primary emissions, coming directly from the engine, cannot be identified in X-ray spectra wi ...; [leggi tutto]
