Evidence for radiation pressure compression in the X-ray narrow-line region of Seyfert galaxies

Abstract: The observed spatial and kinematic overlap between soft X-ray emission and the Narrow Line Region (NLR) in obscured Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) yields compelling evidence that relatively low-density gas co-exists with higher density gas on scales as large as 100s of pc. This is commonly interpreted as evidence for a constant gas pressure multiphase medium, likely produced by thermal instability. Alternatively, Radiation Pressure Compression (RPC) also leads to a density distribution, since a gas pressure (and… Show more

“…In this paper we present the Catalogue with the emission-line luminosities in the soft X-ray band. The details on reduction procedure, spectral analysis and emission-line measurements are fully described in Bianchi et al (2019), where part of the CHRE-SOS sample has been used in the context of RPC analysis. Briefly, each line was fit with a Gaussian profile on top of a power-law continuum.…”
