Compton reflection and iron fluorescence in BeppoSAX observations of Seyfert type 1 galaxies

Compton reflection and iron fluorescence in BeppoSAX observations of Seyfert type 1 galaxies

A sample of nine bright Seyfert 1 and NELG type galaxies, observed with BeppoSAX, is analyzed to assess on a truly broad band basis (0.1–200 keV) the issue of the spectral contributions of Compton reflection and iron line fluorescence from circumnuclear gas. The empirical description adopted for the direct continuum …
