Exploring Possible Relations Between Optical Variability Time Scales and Broad Emission Line Shapes in AGN

Exploring Possible Relations Between Optical Variability Time Scales and Broad Emission Line Shapes in AGN

Here we investigate the connection of broad emission line shapes and continuum light curve variability time scales of type-1 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). We developed a new model to describe optical broad emission lines as an accretion disk model of a line profile with additional ring emission. We...
