Reverberation mapping of the Seyfert Zw I 1

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We report results of the first reverberation mapping campaign of I Zwicky 1 during 2014-2016, which showed unambiguous reverberations of the broad H{beta} line emission in the varying optical continuum.

Description

From analysis using several methods, we obtain a reverberation lag of {tau}_H{beta}_=37.2_-4.9_^+4.5^days. Taking a virial factor of f_BLR_=1, we find a black hole mass of M_{bullet}_=9.30_-1.38_^+1.26^x10^6^M_{sun}_ from the mean spectra.

The accretion rate is estimated to be 203.9_-65.8_^+61.0^L_Edd_c^-2^, suggesting a super-Eddington accretor, where LEdd is the Eddington luminosity and c is the speed of light. By decomposing Hubble Space Telescope images, we find that the stellar mass of the bulge of its host galaxy is log(M_bulge_/M_{sun}_)=10.92+/-0.07. This leads to a black hole to bulge mass ratio of ~10^-4^, which is significantly smaller than that of classical bulges and elliptical galaxies.

After subtracting the host contamination from the observed luminosity, we find that I Zw 1 follows the empirical R_BLR_{propto}L_5100_^1/2^ relation.
