Observational Requirements for High-Fidelity Reverberation Mapping

Keith Horne, Bradley M. Peterson, Stefan J. Collier +1

We present a series of simulations to demonstrate that high-fidelity velocity-delay maps of the emission-line regions in active galactic nuclei can be obtained from time-resolved s…

Reddening, Emission-Line, and Intrinsic Absorption Properties in the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy Akn 564

D. M. Crenshaw, S. B. Kraemer, T. J. Turner +14

We use Hubble Space Telescope UV and optical spectra of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxy Akn 564 to investigate its internal reddening and properties of its emission-line an…

Multiwavelength Monitoring of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy Akn 564. II. Ultraviolet Continuum and Emission-line Variability

S. Collier, D. M. Crenshaw, B. M. Peterson +15

We present results of an intensive two-month campaign of approximately daily spectrophotometric monitoring of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Akn 564 with HST. The fractional vari…

Multiwavelength Monitoring of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxy Akn 564. I. ASCA Observations and the Variability of the X-ray Spectral Components

T. J. Turner, P. Romano, I. M. George +4

We present a 35 day ASCA observation of the NLS1 Akn 564, which was part of a multiwavelength AGN Watch monitoring campaign. Akn 564 shows a photon index varying across the range 2…

X-Ray and Optical Variability in NGC 4051 and the Nature of Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies

B. M. Peterson, I. M. McHardy, B. J. Wilkes +14

We report on the results of a three-year program of coordinated X-ray and optical monitoring of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051. The rapid continuum variations observed i…

Intensive HST, RXTE and ASCA Monitoring of NGC 3516: Evidence Against Thermal Reprocessing

Rick Edelson, Anuradha Koratkar, Kirpal Nandra +10

During 1998 April 13-16, NGC 3516 was monitored almost continuously with HST for 10.3 hr in the UV and 2.8 d in the optical, and simultaneous RXTE and ASCA monitoring covered the s…
