Complex emission line region of Mrk 817

چکیده
In this work we study the physical and kinematical properties of the emission line region of Seyfert 1.5 galaxy Mrk 817 using three sets of observations, among which are high-resolution spectra obtained with the Isaac Newton Telescope on Canary Islands. We find that in Mrk 817 the Narrow (NEL) and Broad Emission Lines (BEL) are very complex, indicating that structure of both the Narrow (NLR) and Broad Line Region (BLR) is complex and consists of at least two sub-regions with different kinematical properties. We find that the BEL can be fitted with the two-component model, where the core of the line is coming from a spherical region with isotropic velocity distribution, and wings might be affected by a low inclined accretion disc (or disc-like emitting region). Also, we discuss the physical properties of the BLR. Moreover, we find that an outflow is present in the NLR, that may be driven by an approaching jet.

DETECTION OF THE POLARIZED BROAD EMISSION LINE IN THE SEYFERT 2 GALAXY MRK 573 aBASED ON DATA COLLECTED AT SUBARU TELESCOPE, WHICH IS OPERATED BY THE NATIONAL AS- TRONOMICAL OBSERVATORY OF JAPAN
We report the discovery of the scattered emission from a hidden broad-line region (BLR) in a Seyfert 2 galaxy, Mrk 573, based on our recent spectropolarimetric observation performed at the Subaru Telescope. This object has been regarded as a type 2 AGN without a hidden BLR by the previous observations. However, our high quality spectrum of the polarized flux of Mrk 573 shows prominent broad (∼3...

Radio observations using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) and the Westerbork interferometer have been carried out to study the hydroxyl Megamaser emission in Mrk 273 at different spatial resolutions. Line and continuum observations were carried out by the European VLBI network (EVN) at 1.6 GHz and display a number of distinct structural components in the central arcsec region. The obser...

We present results of optical long-term variability campaigns (10 – 20 years) of the two Seyfert galaxies NGC 7603 and Mrk 110. The variations of the continuum, of the individual broad line intensities and of their line profiles are investigated in detail and compared to line profile variations in NGC 5548 and NGC 4593. Individual emission line profiles vary differently from line to line and fr...
متن کاملAccretion disk wind in the AGN broad - line region : Spectroscopically resolved line profile variations in Mrk 110
Detailed line profile variability studies of the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 110 are presented. We obtained the spectra in a variability campaign carried out with the 9.2m Hobby-Eberly Telescope at McDonald Observatory. The integrated Balmer and Helium (He i, ii) emission lines are delayed by 3 to 33 light days to the optical continuum variations respectively. The outer wings of the line p...
متن کاملA New Superwind Wolf - Rayet Galaxy Mrk 1259
We report the discovery of a starburst-driven wind (superwind) from the starburst nucleus galaxy Mrk 1259. The estimated number ratio of Wolf-Rayet (WR) to O stars amounts to ≃ 0.09. While the nuclear emission-line region is due to usual photoionization by massive stars, the circumnuclear emission-line regions show anomalous line ratios that can be due to cooling shocks. Since the host galaxy s...
