AI总结:

本文利用恒星动力学建模,结合自适应光学与HST观测数据,约束了邻近活动星系NGC 5273的黑洞质量,并与反响映射结果进行了比较。

摘要:

我们提出了对活动S0星系NGC 5273中黑洞质量的新约束。由于该星系距离为$16.6 \pm 2.1$ Mpc,我们能够利用双子座NIFS的自适应光学辅助观测分辨并提取中心黑洞附近恒星的总体运动,同时利用重新处理的档案SAURON光谱约束大尺度运动学。高分辨率HST成像使我们能够生成表面亮度分解,确定核球和盘的大致质光比,并获得盘倾角的估计。我们使用Schwarzschild轨道叠加代码FORSTAND构建了一个广泛的动力学模型库,探索了一系列盘和核球形状、晕质量等。我们确定黑洞质量为$M_{\bullet} = [0.5 - 2] \times 10^{7}$ $M_{\odot}$,其中该范围的低端与反响映射测量结果$M_{\bullet} = [4.7 \pm 1.6] \times 10^{6}$ $M_{\odot}$一致。NGC 5273是少数几个拥有宽线活动星系核的邻近星系之一,这使得对来自不同质量测量技术的黑洞质量进行关键比较成为可能。

英文摘要:

We present a new constraint on the mass of the black hole in the active S0 galaxy NGC 5273. Due to the proximity of the galaxy at $16.6 \pm 2.1$ Mpc, we were able to resolve and extract the bulk motions of stars near the central black hole using AO-assisted observations with Gemini NIFS, as well as constrain the large-scale kinematics using re-reduced archival SAURON spectroscopy. High resolution HST imaging allowed us to generate a surface brightness decomposition, determine approximate mass-to-light ratios for the bulge and disk, and obtain an estimate for the disk inclination. We constructed an extensive library of dynamical models using the Schwarzschild orbit-superposition code FORSTAND, exploring a range of disk and bulge shapes, halo masses, etc. We determined a black hole mass of $M_{\bullet} = [0.5 - 2] \times 10^{7}$ $M_{\odot}$, where the low side of the range is in agreement with the reverberation mapping measurement of $M_{\bullet} = [4.7 \pm 1.6] \times 10^{6}$ $M_{\odot}$. NGC 5273 is one of only a small number of nearby galaxies hosting broad-lined AGN, allowing crucial comparison of the black hole masses derived from different mass measurement techniques.
