摘要:

利用阿塔卡玛大型毫米/亚毫米阵列(ALMA)在$\approx0.3$“(或$\approx$ 100 pc)的空间分辨率下观测到的原子- ${\rm [CI]}$(1-0)和分子- $^{12}$ CO(1-0)发射线,测量了Seyfert 1星系NGC 7469中的超大质量黑洞(SMBH)质量.这些排放表明,NGC 7469拥有一个环核气盘(CND),具有环状结构和双臂/双对称螺旋图案,周围环绕着星爆环。CND的$σ/V\approx0.35$($r\sim0.5$“)和$\sim0.19$($r>0.5"$)相对较低,表明气体是动态沉降的,适合动态推导其中心源的质量。正如预期的X射线主导区(XDR)效应,显着增加原子碳丰度的解离CO分子,我们建议原子[CI](1-0)发射是一个更好的探针SMBH质量比CO发射活动星系核。我们的动力学模型使用${\rm [CI]}$(1-0)运动学产生一个$M_{\rm BH}=1.78^{+2.69}_{-1.10}\times10^7$ M $_\odot$和$M/L_{\rm F547M}=2.25^{+0.40}_{-0.43}$(M $_\odot$ /L $_\odot$)。使用CO(1-0)运动学的模型也给出了具有更大不确定性的一致$M_{\rm BH}$,高达一个数量级,即$M_{\rm BH}=1.60^{+11.52}_{-1.45}\times10^7$ M $_\odot$ .这种新的动态$M_{\rm BH}$是$\approx$ 2倍以上的混响映射(RM)方法使用产生的未解决的宽线区域(BLR)的排放量确定的质量。有了这个新的$M_{\rm BH}$,我们就能够约束NGC 7469中AGN BLR的特定RM无量纲标度因子$f=7.2^{+4.2}_{-3.4}$。因此,在未解决的BLR的气体有一个开普勒维里速度分量和$i\approx11.0^\circ$ $_{-2.5}^{+2.2}$的倾角,确认其面临的塞弗特1 AGN的取向,通过假设一个几何薄的BLR模型。

英文摘要:

We present a supermassive black hole (SMBH) mass measurement in the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC7469 using Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of the atomic-${\rm [CI]}$(1-0) and molecular-$^{12}$CO(1-0) emission lines at the spatial resolution of $\approx0.3$" (or $\approx$ 100 pc). These emissions reveal that NGC7469 hosts a circumnuclear gas disc (CND) with a ring-like structure and a two-arm/bi-symmetric spiral pattern within it, surrounded by a starbursting ring. The CND has a relatively low $σ/V\approx0.35$ ($r\sim0.5$") and $\sim0.19$ ($r>0.5"$), suggesting that the gas is dynamically settled and suitable for dynamically deriving the mass of its central source. As is expected from X-ray dominated region (XDR) effects that dramatically increase an atomic carbon abundance by dissociating CO molecules, we suggest that the atomic [CI](1-0) emission is a better probe of SMBH masses than CO emission in AGNs. Our dynamical model using the ${\rm [CI]}$(1-0) kinematics yields a $M_{\rm BH}=1.78^{+2.69}_{-1.10}\times10^7$M$_\odot$ and $M/L_{\rm F547M}=2.25^{+0.40}_{-0.43}$ (M$_\odot$/L$_\odot$). The model using the CO(1-0) kinematics also gives a consistent $M_{\rm BH}$ with a larger uncertainty, up to an order of magnitude, i.e.\ $M_{\rm BH}=1.60^{+11.52}_{-1.45}\times10^7$M$_\odot$. This newly dynamical $M_{\rm BH}$ is $\approx$ 2 times higher than the mass determined from the reverberation mapped (RM) method using emissions arising in the unresolved broad-line region (BLR). Given this new $M_{\rm BH}$, we are able to constrain the specific RM dimensionless scaling factor of $f=7.2^{+4.2}_{-3.4}$ for the AGN BLR in NGC7469. The gas within the unresolved BLR thus has a Keplerian virial velocity component and the inclination of $i\approx11.0^\circ$$_{-2.5}^{+2.2}$, confirming its face-on orientation in a Seyfert 1 AGN by assuming a geometrically thin BLR model.
