摘要:

我们报告了印度IUCAA Girawali天文台最近委托的2米望远镜对SDSS J 092712 +294344进行的长缝光谱观测。这个类似活动星系核的源有三组发射线,分别位于zem = 0.6972、0.7020和0.7128。不同的方案,如反冲黑洞后,不对称发射的引力波,二进制黑洞和可能的合并系统提出了这个对象。我们测试这些情况下,通过比较我们的光谱与斯隆数字巡天(SDSS),获得4年前,我们的观察。通过比较[OIII] 4960和5008的红移,我们将不同发射区之间的相对加速度限制在32 km s^-1 yr^-1以下。使用在不同的位置角得到的二维光谱,我们表明,[OIII]5008线从zem = 0.7128组件扩展超出光谱点扩散函数。我们推断该线发射区的线性范围约为8 kpc。我们还发现了一个初步的证据,在zem = 0.7128的[OIII]5008线的质心和类星体轨迹时,狭缝是在299度的位置角对齐的偏移。这对应于zem = 0.7128系统的碰撞参量约为1千秒差距,相对于西北方向的zem = 0.6972。根据我们的观察,我们得出结论,二元黑洞模型是最不可能的。空间范围和大小与黑洞反冲和合并的情况是一致的。

英文摘要:

We report long-slit spectroscopic observations of SDSS J092712+294344 carried-out at the recently commissioned 2m telescope in IUCAA Girawali Observatory, India. This AGN-like source is known to feature three sets of emission lines at zem = 0.6972, 0.7020 and 0.7128. Different scenarios such as a recoiling black hole after asymmetric emission of gravitational waves, binary black holes and possible merging systems are proposed for this object. We test these scenarios by comparing our spectra with that from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), obtained 4 years prior to our observations. Comparing the redshifts of [OIII]4960,5008 we put a 3 sigma limit on the relative acceleration to be less than 32 km s^-1 yr^-1 between different emitting regions. Using the 2D spectra obtained at different position angles we show that the [OIII]5008 line from the zem = 0.7128 component is extended beyond the spectral point spread function. We infer the linear extent of this line emitting region is ~8 kpc. We also find a tentative evidence for an offset between the centroid of the [OIII]5008 line at zem = 0.7128 and the QSO trace when the slit is aligned at a position angle of 299 degrees. This corresponds to the zem = 0.7128 system being at an impact parameter of ~1 kpc with respect to the zem = 0.6972 in the north west direction. Based on our observations we conclude that the binary black hole model is most unlikely. The spatial extent and the sizes are consistent with both black hole recoil and merging scenarios.
