The standstill luminosity in Z Cam systems
R. Stehle, A. King, C. Rudge
We consider accretion discs in close binary systems. We show that heating of a disc at the impact point of the accretion stream contributes significantly to the local energy budget…
The luminosity dependence of opening angle in unified models of active galaxies
C. M. Rudge, D. J. Raine
In unified models of active galaxies the direct line of sight to the nucleus is unobscured only within a certain cone of directions. An opening angle for this cone is usually estim…
Determining the cosmological parameters from the linewidths of active galaxies
C. M. Rudge, D. J. Raine
We have previously shown that the linewidth distribution in AGN can be accounted for by an axisymmetric broad emission line region. In this paper we show that the linewidth distrib…
Line Width and Spectral Index Distributions as Evidence for Axisymmetry in the Broad Line Regions of Active Galaxies
C. M. Rudge, D. J. Raine
We propose that the scatter in line width versus luminosity of the BLR of AGN arises from a dependence on the line of sight to an axially symmetric BLR. Adopting a simple model for…
Line width distributions as evidence for axisymmetry in the broad line regions of active galaxies
C. M. Rudge, D. J. Raine
The nuclei of a wide class of active galaxies emit broad emission lines with widths at half maximum (FWHM) in the range km s. This spread of widths is not so…
