Molecular Emission Lines from High Redshift AGNs
A brief overview is given of the current status of molecular emission line observations at high redshift. New observations are presented of CO in the gravitationally lensed quasar MG 0414+0534 (detected) and the unlensed quasar PG 1634+706 (not detected). Also noted are the results of a partially completed search for water maser emission in several redshift bands above z = 0.4.
متن کاملContribution of the Disk Emission to the Broad Emission Lines in AGNs: Two-component model
We present an investigation of the structure of the emission line region in a sample of 12 single-peaked Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). Using the high resolution Hβ and Hα line profiles observed with the Isaac Newton Telescope (La Palma) we study the substructure in the lines (such as shoulders or bumps) which can indicate a disk or disk-like emission in Broad Line Regions (BLRs). Applying Gaus...
متن کاملFe K EMISSION LINES IN LOW-LUMINOSITY AGNS
We present the results of a systematic analysis of Fe K emission lines in low-luminosity AGNs (LLAGNs) observed with ASCA. We used a sample of LLAGNs with small intrinsic absorption to compare with luminous AGNs and accretion models. Some objects show an Fe line at 6.4 keV or 6.7 keV, and the rest of the objects show no significant Fe K emission line. We made a composite spectrum of sources wit...
متن کاملIR Emission from AGNs
Unified schemes of active galactic nuclei (AGN) require an obscuring dusty torus around the central engine. Torus sizes of hundreds of parsecs were deduced from early theoretical modeling efforts, but high-resolution IR observations now show that the torus size is no more than a few parsecs. This conflict is resolved when the clumpy nature of the torus is taken into account. The compact torus m...
متن کاملActive Galactic Nuclei with Double-peaked Narrow Lines: Are They Dual Agns?
Double-peaked [O III] profiles in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) may provide evidence for the existence of dual AGNs, but a good diagnostic for selecting them is currently lacking. Starting from ∼ 7000 active galaxies in SDSS DR7, we assemble a sample of 87 type 2 AGNs with double-peaked [O III] profiles. The nuclear obscuration in the type 2 AGNs allows us to determine redshifts of host galaxie...
