A COMPARISON OF HARD X-RAY PHOTON INDICES AND IRON Kα EMISSION LINES IN X-RAY LUMINOUS NARROW- AND BROAD-LINE SEYFERT 1 GALAXIES

A COMPARISON OF HARD X-RAY PHOTON INDICES AND IRON Kα EMISSION LINES IN X-RAY LUMINOUS NARROW- AND BROAD-LINE SEYFERT 1 GALAXIES

We use publicly available XMM-Newton data to systematically compare the hard X-ray photon indices, Γ2–10 keV, and the iron Kα emission lines of narrow- and broad-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1 and BLS1) galaxies. We compile a flux-limited (f2–10 keV ⩾ 1 × 10−12 erg s−1 cm−2) sample including 114 radio-quiet objects, …
