Spectral properties of AGN in 2XMMi

Studying the emission of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), particularly in the X-ray band can offer considerable insights into the accretion process. This is important as AGN activity has a strong effect on the evolution of their host galaxies. This thesis reports studies of a large sample of type 1 AGN...
