Detection of faint broad emission lines in type 2 AGN: I. Near infrared observations and spectral fitting
F. Onori, F. La Franca, F. Ricci +8
We present medium resolution near infrared spectroscopic observations of 41 obscured and intermediate class AGN (type 2, 1.9 and 1.8; AGN2) with redshift 0.1, selected…

Novel calibrations of virial black hole mass estimators in active galaxies based on X-ray luminosity and optical/NIR emission lines
F. Ricci, F. La Franca, F. Onori +1
Accurately weigh the masses of SMBH in AGN is currently possible for only a small group of local and bright broad-line AGN through reverberation mapping (RM). Statistical demograph…

Detection of Faint BLR Components in the Starburst/Seyfert Galaxy NGC 6221 and Measure of the Central BH Mass
Fabio La Franca, Francesca Onori, Federica Ricci +4
In the last decade, using single epoch virial based techniques in the optical band, it has been possible to measure the central black hole mass on large AGN1 samples. However these…
