Description


The INTEGRAL mission provides a large data set for studying the hard X-ray properties of AGN and allows testing the unified scheme for AGN. This table contains some of the results from the analysis of INTEGRAL IBIS/ISGRI, JEM-X, and OMC data for 199 AGN (and 3 clusters of galaxies) that have been reported to be detected by INTEGRAL at energies above 20 keV. The data analyzed therein allowed a significant spectral extraction on 148 objects and optical variability study of 57 AGN. The slopes of the hard X-ray spectra of Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 galaxies were found to be consistent within the uncertainties, whereas lower luminosities were measured for the more absorbed/type 2 AGN. The intermediate Seyfert 1.5 objects exhibit hard X-ray spectra consistent with those of Seyfert 1 galaxies. When applying a Compton reflection model, the underlying continua appear still the same in Seyfert 1 and 2 with photon index 2, and the reflection strength is about R = 1, when assuming different inclination angles. A significant correlation is found between the hard X-ray and optical luminosity and the mass of the central black hole, in the sense that the more luminous objects appear to be more massive. There is also a general trend for the absorbed sources and type 2 AGN to have lower Eddington ratios. The black hole mass appears to form a fundamental plane together with the optical and X-ray luminosity of the form L<sub>V</sub> being proportional to L<sub>X</sub><sup>0.6</sup> M<sub>BH</sub><sup>0.2</sup>, similar to that found between radio luminosity L<sub>R</sub>, L<sub>X</sub>, and M<sub>BH</sub>. The unified model for Seyfert galaxies seems to hold, showing in hard X-rays that the central engine is the same in Seyfert 1 and 2 but seen under different inclination angles and absorption. A catalog of 199 IBIS/ISGRI detected AGN is presented. For those 148 objects significantly detected in the data set analyzed here, spectral parameters, fluxes, and luminosities are given. In addition, the photometric table of OMC measurements in the V-band (given for 57 of the AGN) is also included herein. For objects with more complex spectra, notice, the results of a fit to a cut-off power law model were presented in Table 3 of the reference paper, but are not included in this HEASARC table. The JEM-X spectra of the 23 AGN detected by the X-ray monitor were fit with the IBIS/ISGRI data, and the results of this were presented in Table 4 of the reference paper, but are also not included in this HEASARC table. This table was created by the HEASARC in November 2009 based on the electronic version of Tables 1, 2 and 5 from the reference paper which was obtained from the CDS (their catalog J/A+A/505/417 files table1.dat, table2.dat and table5.dat). This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
