چکیده
We present a supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass measurement in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC7469 using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of atomic-${\rm [CI]}$(1-0) and molecular-$^{12}$CO(1-0) emission lines at spatial resolution $\approx0.3$" (or $\approx$ 100 pc). These emissions reveal that hosts circumnuclear gas disc (CND) with ring-like structure two-arm/bi-symmetric spiral pattern within it, surrounded by starbursting ring. The CND has relatively low $\sigma/V\approx0.35$ ($r\sim0.5$") $\sim0.19$ ($r>0.5"$), suggesting is dynamically settled suitable for deriving its central source. As expected from X-ray dominated region (XDR) effects dramatically increase an atomic carbon abundance dissociating CO molecules, we suggest [CI](1-0) better probe SMBH masses than AGNs. Our dynamical model ${\rm kinematics yields $M_{\rm BH}=1.78^{+2.69}_{-1.10}\times10^7$M$_\odot$ $M/L_{\rm F547M}=2.25^{+0.40}_{-0.43}$ (M$_\odot$/L$_\odot$). CO(1-0) also gives consistent BH}$ larger uncertainty, up to order magnitude, i.e.\ BH}=1.60^{+11.52}_{-1.45}\times10^7$M$_\odot$. This newly 2 times higher determined reverberation mapped (RM) method arising unresolved broad-line (BLR). Given this new BH}$, are able constrain specific RM dimensionless scaling factor $f=7.2^{+4.2}_{-3.4}$ AGN BLR NGC7469. thus Keplerian virial velocity component inclination $i\approx11.0^\circ$$_{-2.5}^{+2.2}$, confirming face-on orientation assuming geometrically thin model.

Using Multiwavelength Observations to Determine the Black Hole Mass and Accretion Rate in the Type 1 Seyfert Galaxy Ngc 5548
We model the spectral energy distribution of the type 1 Seyfert galaxy NGC 5548, fitting data from simultaneous optical, UV, and X-ray monitoring observations. We assume a geometry consisting of a hot central Comptonizing region surrounded by a thin accretion disk. The properties of the disk and the hot central region are determined by the feedback occurring between the hot Comptonizing region ...
متن کاملA Low - Mass Central Black Hole in the Bulgeless Seyfert 1 Galaxy Ngc 4395
NGC 4395 is one of the least luminous and nearest known type 1 Seyfert galaxies, and it also lacks a bulge. We present a Hubble Space Telescope (HST) I-band image of its nuclear region, and Keck high-resolution (∼ 8 km s−1) echelle spectra containing the Ca II near-infrared triplet. In addition to the unresolved point source, there is a nuclear star cluster of size r ≈ 3.9 pc; the upper limit o...
متن کاملFrequency - dependent time lags in the X - ray emission of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 7469
We report the discovery of time lags in the cross-spectra of the X-ray light curves of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 7469. This behavior is common in Galactic black hole and neutron star binaries, and is in the sense that harder X-rays are delayed with respect to the soft with a time lag approximately proportional to the Fourier period. At the longest period probed by our observation (∼ 6 days) we fin...
متن کاملPox 52: a Dwarf Seyfert 1 Galaxy with an Intermediate-mass Black Hole
We describe new optical images and spectra of POX 52, a dwarf galaxy with an active nucleus that was originally detected in the POX objective-prism survey. While POX 52 was originally thought to be a Seyfert 2 galaxy, the new data reveal an emission-line spectrum very similar to that of the dwarf Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4395, with broad components to the permitted line profiles, and we classify PO...
متن کاملA Supermassive Black Hole in the S0 Galaxy Ngc 3245
The S0 galaxy NGC 3245 contains a circumnuclear disk of ionized gas and dust with a radius of 1. 1 (or 110 pc), making it an ideal target for dynamical studies with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST ). We have obtained spectra of the nuclear disk with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, using an 0. 2-wide slit at five parallel positions. Measurements of the Hα and [N II] emission lines are ...
