摘要:

我们提出了长期(20年期,从1996年到2015年)的光谱监测的塞弗特1星系NGC 7469的结果。本文探讨了He Ⅱ λ 4686 A宽Hβ和Hα线的光变曲线的变化,以及5100 A和6300 A的连续谱。活动的最大值出现在1998年,连续谱和谱线的变化似乎有两个大约1200和2600天的周期,但是由于红噪声的存在,这些周期应该谨慎对待。除了这些周期外,在光变曲线中还有几个短期(1-5天)的类似耀斑的事件。连续通量与Hα和Hβ线通量有较好的相关性,而He Ⅱ与连续通量的相关性则明显较小。我们发现Hβ(~20 l.d.)和Hα(~3 l.d.),He II也具有较小的滞后(~2-3 l.d.)。Hα和Hβ谱线的分布有轻微的红色不对称性,宽谱线的分布在20年内没有变化。利用Hα和Hβ的滞后和宽度,我们估计了中心黑洞的质量,发现它是~(1-6)x $10^7 M_{\odot}$,这与以前的混响估计是一致的。

英文摘要:

We present the results of the long-term (20-year period, from 1996 to 2015) optical spectral monitoring of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 7469. The variation in the light-curves of the broad He II λ4686A Hβ and Hα lines, and the continuum at 5100A and 6300A have been explored. The maximum of activity was in 1998, and the variability in the continuum and lines seems to have two periods of around 1200 and 2600 days, however these periodicities should be taken with caution because of the red-noise. Beside these periods, there are several short-term (1-5 days) flare-like events in the light-curves. There are good correlations between the continuum fluxes and Hα and Hβ line fluxes, but significantly smaller correlation between the He II and continuum. We found that the time-lags between the continuum and broad lines are different for Hβ (~20 l.d.) and Hα (~3 l.d.), and that He II also has a smaller lag (~2-3 l.d.). The Hα and Hβ line profiles show a slight red asymmetry, and the broad line profiles did not changed in the 20-year period. Using the lags and widths of Hα and Hβ we estimated the central black hole mass and found that it is ~(1-6)x$10^7 M_{\odot}$, which is in agreement with previous reverberation estimates.
