Modeling of the Quasar Main Sequence in the Optical Plane

TL;DR: In this paper, a physically motivated model was proposed to explain the distribution of quasars in the optical plane, where a hard X-ray power law uniquely tight to the disk at the basis of observational scaling, and the Broad Line Region distance was determined also from observational scaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modelling of the quasar main sequence in the optical plane

TL;DR: In this article, the authors use a physically motivated model to explain the distribution of quasars in the optical plane and conclude that there is no single simple driver behind the sequence, as neither the Eddington ratio nor broad band spectrum shape plays the dominant role.
Journal ArticleDOI

The dust origin of the Broad Line Region and the model consequences for AGN unification scheme

TL;DR: In this article, a simple physical mechanism was proposed for the formation of the Low Ionization Line part of the Broad Line Region in Active Galactic Nuclei, where the local effective temperature of a non-illuminated accretion disk drops below 1000 K and allows for dust formation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The intermediate-line region in active galactic nuclei

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the observed suppression of the gap between the broad line region and the narrow line region in some AGN can be fully explained by an increase of the gas density in the emitting region, which is consistent with the density of upper layers of an accretion disk atmosphere.

Absorption Measure Distribution in Mrk 509

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors modeled the absorption measure distribution (AMD) with a single-zone absorber in pressure equilibrium, and found theoretical AMD that matched the observed AMD determined on the basis of the 600 ks reflection grating spectrometer XMM-Newton spectrum of Mrk 509.
