The black hole fundamental plane from a uniform sample of radio and X-ray emitting broad line AGNs

Abstract

We derived the black hole fundamental plane relationship among the 1.4GHz radio luminosity (L_r), 0.1-2.4keV X-ray luminosity (L_X), and black hole mass (M) from a uniform broad line SDSS AGN sample including both radio loud and radio quiet X-ray emitting sources. We found in our sample that the fundamental plane relation has a very weak dependence on the black hole mass, and a tight correlation also exists between the Eddington luminosity scaled X-ray and radio luminosities for the radio quiet subsample. Additionally, we noticed that the radio quiet and radio loud AGNs have different power-law slopes in the radio--X-ray non-linear relationship. The radio loud sample displays a slope of 1.39, which seems consistent with the jet dominated X-ray model. However, it may also be partly due to the relativistic beaming effect. For radio quiet sample the slope of the radio--X-ray relationship is about 0.85, which is possibly consistent with the theoretical prediction from the accretion flow dominated X-ray model. We briefly discuss the reason why our derived relationship is different from some previous works and expect the future spectral studies in radio and X-ray bands on individual sources in our sample to confirm our result.
