Megamaser detection and nuclear obscuration in Seyfert galaxies
TL;DR: In this article, the relation between H2O maser detection rate and nuclear obscuration was revisited for a sample of 114 Seyfert galaxies, drawn from the CfA, 12um and IRAS F25/F60 catalogs.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper , the velocity-resolved reverberation response of the Hβ broad emission line in nine Seyfert 1 galaxies from the Lick Active Galactic Nucleus (AGN) Monitoring Project 2016 sample was modeled, drawing inferences on the geometry and structure of the low-ionization broad-line region (BLR) and the mass of the central supermassive black hole.
Journal ArticleDOI
The extended narrow-line region of two type-i quasi-stellar objects
Semyeong Oh,Jong-Hak Woo,Vardha N. Bennert,Bruno Jungwiert,Martin Haas,Christian Leipski,Marcus Albrecht +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the narrow-line region (NLR) of two radio-quiet QSOs, PG1012+008 and PG1307+085, using high signal-to-noise spatially resolved long-slit spectra obtained with FORS1 at the Very Large Telescope.

Bennert,Matthew A. Malkan +24 more
TL;DR: Rakshit et al. as discussed by the authors showed a correlation between the size of the broad line region (BLR) and the monochromatic continuum luminosity at 5100 AA, allowing black hole mass estimation based on single-epoch spectra.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a geometric and dynamical model for the broad line region (BLR) of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Arp 151 to infer the evolution of the BLR structure over a total of seven years and constrain the systematic uncertainties in nonvarying parameters such as the black hole mass.
