Monitoring AGNs with H{beta} Asymmetry. II.
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We report the results of reverberation mapping of three bright Seyfert galaxies, Mrk 79, NGC 3227, and Mrk 841, from a campaign conducted from 2016 December to 2017 May with the Wyoming Infrared Observatory (WIRO) 2.3m telescope.
Description
All three of these targets have shown asymmetric broad H{beta} emission lines in the past, although their emission lines were relatively symmetric during our observations. We measured H{beta} time lags for all three targets and estimated masses of their black holes-for the first time in the case of Mrk 841.
For Mrk 79 and NGC 3227, the data are of sufficient quality to resolve distinct time lags as a function of velocity and to compute two-dimensional velocity-delay maps. Mrk 79 shows smaller time lags for high-velocity gas, but the distribution is not symmetric, and its complex velocity-delay map could result from the combination of both inflowing and outflowing H{beta} emitting disks that may be part of a single larger structure.

NGC 3227 shows the largest time lags for blueshifted gas, and the two-dimensional velocity-delay map suggests a disk with some inflow. We compare our results with previous work and find evidence for different time lags despite similar luminosities, as well as evolving broad-line region structures.
