摘要:

INTEGRAL任务为研究活动星系核的硬X射线性质提供了大量的数据,并允许对活动星系核的统一方案进行测试。我们提出了分析的INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI,JEM-X,和OMC数据的199 AGN推测检测INTEGRAL超过20千电子伏。这里分析的数据允许显着的光谱提取148个对象和光学可变性研究57活动星系核。Seyfert 1和Seyfert~2星系的硬X射线谱的斜率在不确定度范围内是一致的,而对于吸收较多的2型活动星系核,则测得较高的截止能量和较低的光度。中间的塞弗特1.5天体显示出与塞弗特1一致的硬X射线光谱。当应用康普顿反射模型时,在光子指数为2的塞弗特1和塞弗特2中,下面的连续体看起来是相同的,并且当假设不同的倾角时,反射强度约为R = 1。在硬X射线和光学光度与中心黑洞质量之间发现了一个显著的相关性,在这个意义上,更明亮的物体似乎更大的质量。也有一个总的趋势,吸收源和2型活动星系核具有较低的爱丁顿比。黑洞似乎形成了一个基本面,其光学和X射线光度的形式为Lv,与Lx ^0.6 M ^0.2成正比,类似于射电光度Lr、Lx和M之间的关系。塞弗特星系的统一模型似乎成立,在硬X射线中显示,塞弗特1号和2号的中央引擎是相同的,但在不同的倾角和吸收下看到。(节录)

英文摘要:

The INTEGRAL mission provides a large data set for studying the hard X-ray properties of AGN and allows testing of the unified scheme for AGN. We present analysis of INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI, JEM-X, and OMC data for 199 AGN supposedly detected by INTEGRAL above 20 keV. The data analysed here allow a significant spectral extraction on 148 objects and an optical variability study of 57 AGN. The slopes of the hard X-ray spectra of Seyfert 1 and Seyfert~2 galaxies are found to be consistent within the uncertainties, whereas higher cut-off energies and lower luminosities are measured for the more absorbed / type 2 AGN. The intermediate Seyfert 1.5 objects exhibit hard X-ray spectra consistent with those of Seyfert 1. When applying a Compton reflection model, the underlying continua appear the same in Seyfert 1 and 2 with photon index 2, and the reflection strength is about R = 1, when assuming different inclination angles. A significant correlation is found between the hard X-ray and optical luminosity and the mass of the central black hole in the sense that the more luminous objects appear to be more massive. There is also a general trend toward the absorbed sources and type 2 AGN having lower Eddington ratios. The black holemass appears to form a fundamental plane together with the optical and X-ray luminosity of the form Lv being proportional to Lx^0.6 M^0.2, similar to that found between radio luminosity Lr, Lx, and M. The unified model for Seyfert galaxies seems to hold, showing in hard X-rays that the central engine is the same in Seyfert 1 and 2, but seen under different inclination angles and absorption.
