Advances in Reverberation Mapping
This contribution briefly reviews the reverberation mapping technique which leads to determination of black hole masses. I focus on the emerging relation between the broad-line region size and the active galactic nucleus (AGN) luminosity, and on an overview of recent results of reverberation mapping studies which are starting to cover the full AGN luminosity range. Preliminary results and time ...
متن کاملReverberation Mapping and Broad-Line Region Models
I review what we have learned about the BLR from reverberation mapping, point to some problems and complications that have emerged, and outline some future directions.
متن کاملA Reverberation Instrument Based on Perceptual Mapping
The present article describes a reverberation instrument which is based on cognitive categorization of reverberating spaces. Different techniques for artificial reverberation will be covered. A multidimensional scaling experiment was conducted on impulse responses in order to determine how humans acoustically perceive spatiality. This research seems to indicate that the perceptual dimensions ar...
متن کاملIron Line Reverberation Mapping with Constellation-x
The broad X-ray iron line seen in the spectra of many AGN is thought to originate from the inner regions of the putative black hole accretion disk, and hence provides a rare probe of that central region. In principle, future high throughput X-ray spectrometers should be able to examine the temporal response of this fluorescent line to flares in the X-ray continuum source (which energizes this e...
