摘要: A detailed analysis of the data from a high sampling rate, multi-month reverberation mapping campaign, undertaken primarily at MDM Observatory with supporting observations telescopes around world, reveals that Hβ emission region within broad-line regions (BLRs) several nearby active galactic nuclei (AGNs) exhibits variety kinematic behaviors. While primary goal this campaign was to obtain either new or improved lag measurements for relatively low-luminosity AGNs, we were also able unambiguously reconstruct velocity-resolved signals subset our targets. Through cadence spectroscopic monitoring optical continuum and broad emission-line variations observed in nuclear NGC 3227, NGC 3516, NGC 5548, clearly see evidence outflowing, infalling, virialized BLR gas motions, respectively.
