Search for coronal temperature variation in Seyfert galaxies

I Pal, CS Stalin - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
While the temperature of the X-ray corona (kT e) in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) is known for
many sources, its variation if any is limited to a handful of objects. This is in part due to the …
