Extreme line profile variations in the repeating changing-look active galactic nucleus IRAS23226-3843
Wolfram Kollatschny, Dirk Grupe, Hartmut Winkler +7
IRAS23226-3843 has been identified as a highly variable Seyfert galaxy and even as a changing-look active galactic nucleus based on optical spectra. Here we present follow-up obser…
First reverberation mapping of a Bowen fluorescence line
Martin W. Ochmann, Edward M. Cackett, Lukas Diehl +3
Reverberation mapping (RM) is a powerful tool to determine the extent, structure, and kinematics of the broad-line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGN). So far, RM of the B…
Emission-Line and Continuum Reverberation Mapping of the NLS1 Galaxy WPVS 48
M. A. Probst, W. Kollatschny, M. W. Ochmann +6
WPVS 48 is a nearby narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy without previous analysis of the broad-line region (BLR) by means of optical spectroscopic reverberation mapping. By studying the c…
Multiwavelength continuum, emission line and BAL variability with prominent PV absorption in the X-ray-weakest quasar PG0043+039
Wolfram Kollatschny, Norbert Schartel, Malte A. Probst +3
PG0043+039 has been identified as an extremely X-ray-weak quasar and as a peculiar broad-absorption-line quasar based on UV HST spectra. We took simultaneous deep X-ray observation…
Double-peaked Ca II traces a relativistic broad-line region disk in NGC 4593
M. W. Ochmann, P. M. Weilbacher, M. A. Probst +7
Double-peaked emission lines are observed in a small percentage of active galactic nuclei (AGN). These lines allow the determination of properties of the line-emitting region, know…
Broad-Line Region Characterization in Dozens of Active Galactic Nuclei Using Small-Aperture Telescopes
Catalina Sobrino Figaredo, Doron Chelouche, Martin Haas +9
We present the results of a nearly decade-long photometric reverberation mapping (PRM) survey of the H emission line in nearby () Seyfert-Galaxies…
