Profile of the [O III] emission lines in radio-emitting narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies [GA]

http://arxiv.org/abs/1506.05800


In this work we investigate the phenomenon of blue outliers in two complete samples of radio-emitting narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s), one radio-loud and one radio-quiet. By analysing their optical spectra and decomposing the [O III] lines, we investigate the different properties of the narrow line region (NLR) in the samples. This provides in turn useful information on the jet formation mechanism, and on its interaction with the NLR.
