Nonthermal X-ray emission from 3C 273 - The core of a knotty problem?

Abstract

The quasar 3C 273 was observed in the hard X-ray region of the spectrum (15-300 keV) during a stratospheric balloon flight on July 15, 1987. The emitted photon spectrum is well described by a single power law of photon index -1.61 which corresponds to a hard (20-200 keV) X-ray luminosity of 0.8 x 10 to the 47th ergs/s. This flux is consistent with the 1978/1979 HEAO 1 and AIT/MPI measurements and about a factor of three below the high state measured in 1981 (AIT/MPI). The implications of these results with respect to the location of the production site and mechanism are discussed. 26 refs.
