The extra-galactic hard x-ray sky as painted by INTEGRAL

The extra-galactic hard x-ray sky as painted by INTEGRAL
The INTEGRAL/IBIS is surveying a large fraction of the sky above 20 keV with a sensitivity larger than a few mCrab, discovering a number of new extragalactic sources many of which now identified as nearby AGN. We have combined INTEGRAL data with 2–10 keV information (XMM-Newton, Chandra, Swift, archival ASCA and BeppoSAX data) to probe the broad-band spectral properties of different classes of AGN: type 1/2 Seyfert galaxies, radio-galaxies, NLSyls, quasars. A number of interesting sources have also been discovered by means of multiwavelength observations. A study of a complete (20–40 keV) sample of AGN is on-going focused on a detailed study of the intrinsic and reflected continuum components.

Abstract

The INTEGRAL/IBIS is surveying a large fraction of the sky above 20 keV with a sensitivity larger than a few mCrab, discovering a number of new extragalactic sources many of which now identified as nearby AGN. We have combined INTEGRAL data with 2–10 keV information (XMM-Newton, Chandra, Swift, archival ASCA and BeppoSAX data) to probe the broad-band spectral properties of different classes of AGN: type 1/2 Seyfert galaxies, radio-galaxies, NLSyls, quasars. A number of interesting sources have also been discovered by means of multiwavelength observations. A study of a complete (20–40 keV) sample of AGN is on-going focused on a detailed study of the intrinsic and reflected continuum components.
