Modeling AGN spectra with PHOENIX: a self-consistent approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
We find that spectra of certain Iron Low Ionization Broad Absorption Line (FeLOBAL) QSOs, which are characterized by low–ionization emission and blue shifted absorption lines, can be well matched with the spectral synthesis code SYNOW. SYNOW is a resonance scattering code and assumes that line emission comes from a single line forming region. This interpretation is novel as traditionally line emission and absorption in BALQSOs are thought to come from two different regions. We extend this analysis by using the detailed PHOENIX code to model the spectra. We present a SYNOW fit and a preliminary model result from PHOENIX.

AGN Zoo and Classications of Active Galaxies
We review the variety of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) classes (so-calledAGN zoo") and classification schemes of galaxies by activity types based on their optical emission-line spectrum, as well as other parameters and other than optical wave-length ranges. A historical overview of discoveries of various types of active galaxies is given, including Seyfert galaxies, radio galaxies, QSOs, BL Lace...
متن کاملRock physical modeling enhancement in hydrocarbon reservoirs using Choquet fuzzy integral fusion approach
Rock physics models are widely used in hydrocarbon reservoir studies. These models make it possible to simulate a reservoir more accurately and reduce the economic risk of oil and gas exploration. In the current study, two models of Self-Consistent Approximation followed by Gassmann (SCA-G) and Xu-Payne (X-P) were implemented on three wells of a carbonate reservoir in the southwest of Ira...
متن کاملMASS MEASUREMENTS OF AGN FROM MULTI-LORENTZIAN MODELS OF X-RAY VARIABILITY. I. SAMPLING EFFECTS IN THEORETICAL MODELS OF THE σ rms-MBH CORRELATION
Recent X-ray variability studies on a large sample of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) suggest that the log of the square of the fractional rms variability amplitude, σ rms, seems to correlate with the log of the black-hole mass, MBH, with larger black holes being less variable for a fixed time interval. The fact that the rms amplitude can be easily obtained from the observed X-ray light curves has...
متن کاملA Self-Consistent Technique for the Construction and Evaluation of the Three-Parameter Corresponding States Principles
A self-consistent approach for the evaluation of the existing three-parameter corresponding states principles of non-polar fluids and the calculation of the corresponding states parameters is presented. This self consistent approach is based upon the assumption that the contribution of the third parameter to the thermophysical properties is much smaller than the contributions of the first two p...
متن کاملDetectability of low-energy X-ray spectral components in type 1 active galactic nuclei
In this paper we examine the percentage of type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGN) which require the inclusion of a soft excess component and/or significant cold absorption in the modelling of their X-ray spectra obtained by XMM–Newton. We do this by simulating spectra which mimic typical spectral shapes in order to find the maximum detectability expected at different count levels. We then apply a ...
