Obscured AGN With NuSTAR
Abstract
The Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array (NuSTAR) is the first orbiting telescope to focus high energy X-ray light above 10 keV. Compared to the previous generation of coded mask observatories, this change in technology provides NuSTAR with 10x sharper images and 100x improved sensitivityThe unprecedented spectral quality in the 3-80 keV band has provided unique information about the circumnuclear reflecting environment of AGNI will present and discuss results from the NuSTAR observations of nearby Obscured AGN in its first four years of science.
