Title: | Periodic optical variability of AGN | Authors: | Bon, E. MARZIANI, Paola Bon, N. |
Issue Date: | 2017 | Volume: | New Frontiers in Black Hole Astrophysics | Editors: | Gomboc, Andreja | Series: | PROCEEDINGS OF THE INTERNATIONAL ASTRONOMICAL UNION | Number: | vol. 12, S324 | First Page: | 176 | Abstract: | Here we present the evidence for periodicity of an optical emission detected in several AGN. Significant periodicity is found in light curves and radial velocity curves. We discuss possible mechanisms that could produce such periodic variability and their implications. The results are consistent with possible detection of the orbital motion in proximity of the AGN central supermassive black holes. | Conference Name: | New Frontiers in Black Hole Astrophysics | Conference Place: | Ljubljana, Slovenia | Conference Date: | 12-16 September, 2016 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/27246 | URL: | https://arxiv.org/abs/1702.07210 https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/proceedings-of-the-international-astronomical-union/article/periodic-optical-variability-of-agn/7B9AF33E2D15E75343C61AEAC6073483 |
