摘要:

星系并合被广泛认为是星系形成和演化的重要驱动因素,而活动星系核的反馈被认为调节着BH-球核的协同演化和恒星形成过程。在这种背景下,我们关注了1 SXPSJ 050819.8 +172149,一个本地(z=0.0175)塞弗特1.9星系(L_bol~4x10^43 ergs/s)。该源属于一个红外发光的相互作用星系对,其特征是整个系统的光度(由于恒星形成和吸积的结合)log(L_IR/L_sun)=11.2。我们提出了1 SXPSJ 050819.8 +172149的0.3- 10 keV光谱的第一个详细描述,由Swift在不到1个月的时间内进行了9次监测。1 SXPSJ 050819.8 +172149的X射线发射通过结合所有Swift点进行分析,总共约72 ks XRT净曝光。还分析了70个月调查的平均Swift-BAT频谱。连续谱的斜率约为1.8,内禀柱密度NH约为2.4x10^22 cm-2,去吸收光度L(2- 10 keV)约为4x10^42 ergs/s。我们的观测提供了一个蓝移的FeXXVI吸收线(静止坐标系E~7.8 keV)的试探性(2.1sigma)检测,这表明在这个源中发现了一个新的候选强风。流出物的物理性质不能坚定地评估,由于低统计的频谱和观察到的能量线,太接近较高的边界的Swift-XRT带通。然而,我们的分析表明,如果探测得到证实,该线可能与高速(vout~0.1c)外流有关,最有可能在80 r_S内发射。据我们所知,这是雨燕首次探测到以前未知的超快风。由观测到的线的等效宽度(EW~-230eV,尽管有很大的不确定性)所暗示的高NH,将意味着一个足够强的动力学输出,可以与AGN的热光度相媲美。

英文摘要:

Galaxy merging is widely accepted to be a key driving factor in galaxy formation and evolution, while the feedback from AGN is thought to regulate the BH-bulge coevolution and the star formation process. In this context, we focused on 1SXPSJ050819.8+172149, a local (z=0.0175) Seyfert 1.9 galaxy (L_bol~4x10^43 ergs/s). The source belongs to an IR-luminous interacting pair of galaxies, characterized by a luminosity for the whole system (due to the combination of star formation and accretion) of log(L_IR/L_sun)=11.2. We present the first detailed description of the 0.3-10keV spectrum of 1SXPSJ050819.8+172149, monitored by Swift with 9 pointings performed in less than 1 month. The X-ray emission of 1SXPSJ050819.8+172149 is analysed by combining all the Swift pointings, for a total of ~72ks XRT net exposure. The averaged Swift-BAT spectrum from the 70-month survey is also analysed. The slope of the continuum is ~1.8, with an intrinsic column density NH~2.4x10^22 cm-2, and a deabsorbed luminosity L(2-10keV)~4x10^42 ergs/s. Our observations provide a tentative (2.1sigma) detection of a blue-shifted FeXXVI absorption line (rest-frame E~7.8 keV), suggesting the discovery for a new candidate powerful wind in this source. The physical properties of the outflow cannot be firmly assessed, due to the low statistics of the spectrum and to the observed energy of the line, too close to the higher boundary of the Swift-XRT bandpass. However, our analysis suggests that, if the detection is confirmed, the line could be associated with a high-velocity (vout~0.1c) outflow most likely launched within 80r_S. To our knowledge this is the first detection of a previously unknown ultrafast wind with Swift. The high NH suggested by the observed equivalent width of the line (EW~ -230eV, although with large uncertainties), would imply a kinetic output strong enough to be comparable to the AGN bolometric luminosity.
