摘要:

由{ \it Fermi}卫星探测到的B2 0954+ 25 A是一个具有有趣观测特性的耀变体:它被观测到从喷流为主过渡到盘状为主的状态;它的射电频谱在所有观测频率下(低至74 MHz)都是平坦的;光学上,H $β$线轮廓是不对称的。射电频谱的平坦性表明,来自射电瓣的各向同性发射非常微弱,尽管其喷流的尺寸很大($\gtrsim$ 500 kpc)。它的宽波段光谱能量分布与典型的$γ$ -射线射电强窄线塞弗特1($γ$ --NLS 1)星系PMN J 0948 +0022惊人地相似。在这项工作中,我们重新考虑B 2 0954+ 25 A的质量估计,只考虑H $β$线的对称分量,并找到(1- 3)$\times 10^8$ M $_{\sun}$。根据我们的复合分析,我们建议将源分类为平谱射电类星体和$γ$ -射线,射电大声NLS 1类之间的过渡对象。讨论了每个类的两个成员(3C 273和PMN J 0948 +0022)的比较。

英文摘要:

B2 0954+25A, detected by the {\it Fermi} satellite, is a blazar with interesting observational properties: it has been observed to transit from a jet dominated to a disk dominated state; its radio spectrum appears flat at all observing frequencies (down to 74 MHz); optically, the H$β$ line profile is asymmetric. The flatness of radio spectrum suggests that the isotropic emission from radio lobes is very weak, despite the large size of its jet ($\gtrsim$ 500 kpc). Its broad--band spectral energy distribution is surprisingly similar to that of the prototypical $γ$--ray, radio loud, Narrow Line Seyfert 1 ($γ$--NLS1) galaxy PMN J0948+0022. In this work we revisit the mass estimates of B2 0954+25A considering only the symmetric component of the H$β$ line and find (1--3) $\times 10^8$ M$_{\sun}$. In light of our composite analysis, we propose to classify the source as a transition object between the class of Flat Spectrum Radio Quasar and $γ$--ray, radio loud NLS1. A comparison with two members of each class (3C 273 and PMN J0948+0022) is discussed.
