Identifying AGNs from X-ray detectionsII: Metallicity calibrations for the and diagnostics
Mark Armah, O. L. Dors, Rogério Riffel +4
Emission-line ratios from ions with nearly identical ionization potentials offer a robust solution to the degeneracies inherent to traditional active galactic nuclei (AGNs) metalli…
Identifying AGNs from X-ray detections-I: Metallicity calibrations in AGNs with X-ray luminosity as the primary input parameter
Mark Armah, O. L. Dors, Rogério Riffel +4
We present the first semi-empirical strong-line calibrations to determine metallicity in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs) that use the directly observable X-ray luminosity (Lx) instea…
Direct estimates of nitrogen abundance for Seyfert 2 nuclei
O. L. Dors, M. V. Cardaci, G. F. Hägele +10
We derive the nitrogen and oxygen abundances in the Narrow Line Regions (NLRs) of a sample of 38 local () Seyfert~2 nuclei. For that, we consider narrow optical emis…
Chemical abundances of LINER galaxies -- Nitrogen abundance estimations
C. B. Oliveira, A. C. Krabbe, O. L. Dors +5
In this work, we investigated the nitrogen and oxygen abundances in a sample of galaxies with Low Ionization Nuclear Emission Regions (LINERs) in their nucleus. Optical spectroscop…
