Journal ArticleDOI

Steps toward determination of the size and structure of the broad-line region in active galactic nuclei. II - An intensive study of NGC 5548 at optical wavelengths

Bradley M. Peterson, +75 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a large-scale ground-based optical spectroscopy and photometry of the variable Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 5548 undertaken in support of an IUE monitoring campaign is described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steps toward determination of the size and structure of the broad-line region in active galactic nuclei. 5: Variability of the ultraviolet continuum and emission lines of NGC 3783

Gail A. Reichert, +63 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the results of intensive ultraviolet spectral monitoring of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 3783, which was observed with the International Ultraviolet Explorer satellite on a regular basis for a total of 7 months, once every 4 days for the first 172 days and once every other day for the final 50 days.
Journal ArticleDOI

The type Ia supernova 1989B in NGC 3627 (M66)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors report extensive optical photometry and spectroscopy of the Type Ia supernova 1989B and derive an extinction for SN 1989B of E(B-V) = 037 +/- 003 mags relative to the unobscured Type IIa SN 1980N.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steps toward determination of the size and structure of the broad-line region in active galactic nuclei. IV - Intensity variations of the optical emission lines of NGC 5548

TL;DR: In this article, a cross-correlation analysis is applied to measure the lags between the optical emission lines and the continuum of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 5548.
