Multi-epoch analysis of the X-ray spectrum of the active galactic nucleus in NGC 5506
Multi-epoch analysis of the X-ray spectrum of the active galactic nucleus in NGC 5506
We present a multi-epoch X-ray spectroscopy analysis of the nearby narrow-line Seyfert I galaxy NGC 5506. For the first time, spectra taken by Chandra, XMM–Newton, Suzaku, and NuSTAR– covering the 2000–2014 time span – are analysed simultaneously, using state-of-the-art models to describe reprocessing of the primary continuum by optical thick …
