摘要:

活动星系核是宇宙中最活跃的现象之一,在过去的二十年里,INTEGRAL在其研究中的贡献产生了重大影响。多亏了INTEGRAL河外巡天,在更高的能量下也观测到了AGN中所有种类的软X射线(在2-10 keV波段)。到目前为止,大约有450个活动星系核被编目,其中一个引人注目的部分是第一次在高能下观察到的物体或新发现的活动星系核。高能区(20-200 keV)是活动星系核光谱研究的一个重要窗口,也是最适合活动星系核总体研究的窗口,因为它几乎不受遮蔽的影响,因此不受其他频率观测的限制。多年来,INTEGRAL数据已经允许在高能量下观测活动星系核的光谱,研究它们的吸收特性,测试活动星系核的统一方案,并进行人口研究。在这篇评论中,主要结果的报告和INTEGRAL的活动星系核科学的贡献突出了每一类活动星系核。最后,提供了新的观点,连接INTEGRAL的科学与其他波长,特别是GeV/TeV制度,这仍然是很差的探索。

英文摘要:

AGN are among the most energetic phenomena in the Universe and in the last two decades INTEGRAL's contribution in their study has had a significant impact. Thanks to the INTEGRAL extragalactic sky surveys, all classes of soft X-ray detected (in the 2-10 keV band) AGN have been observed at higher energies as well. Up to now, around 450 AGN have been catalogued and a conspicuous part of them are either objects observed at high-energies for the first time or newly discovered AGN. The high-energy domain (20-200 keV) represents an important window for spectral studies of AGN and it is also the most appropriate for AGN population studies, since it is almost unbiased against obscuration and therefore free of the limitations which affect surveys at other frequencies. Over the years, INTEGRAL data have allowed to characterise AGN spectra at high energies, to investigate their absorption properties, to test the AGN unification scheme and to perform population studies. In this review the main results are reported and INTEGRAL's contribution to AGN science is highlighted for each class of AGN. Finally, new perspectives are provided, connecting INTEGRAL's science with that at other wavelengths and in particular to the GeV/TeV regime which is still poorly explored.
