Narrow-line Seyfert,1 galaxies (NLS1s) with very small broad-line widths (say, FWHM(hb) $la $ 1200,kms) represent the extreme type of Seyfert,1 galaxies that have small black hole masses (mbh) and/or high Eddington ratios (redd). Here we study the X-ray properties of a homogeneously and optically selected sample of 13 such objects, termed as very narrow line Seyfert,1 galaxies (VNLS1s), using archival xmm data. It is found that the Fe K$alpha$ emission line is at most weak in these objects. A soft X-ray excess is ubiquitous, with the thermal temperatures falling within a strict range of 0.1--0.2,keV. Our result highlights the puzzling independence of the thermal temperature by extending the relations to even smaller FWHM(hb), i.e., smaller mbh ($sim 10^6$ msun) and/or higher redd. The excess emission can be modeled by a range of viable models, though the disk reflection and Comptonization models generally give somewhat better fits over the smeared absorption and the $p$-free models. At the Eddington ratios around unity and above, the X-ray spectral slopes in the 2--10,keV band are systematically flatter than the Risaliti et al.s predictions of the relationship with redd suggested previously. Short timescale (1--2 hours) X-ray variability is common, which, together with the variability amplitude computed for some of the objects, are supportive of the scenario that NLS1s are indeed AGN with relatively small mbh.
It is arguably in the X-ray regime that Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) exhibit the most extreme behaviour. Spectral complexity, rapid and large amplitude flux variations, and exceptional spectral variability are well known characteristics. Ho
Narrow line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies constitute a class of active galactic nuclei characterized by the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the H$beta$ broad emission line < 2000 km/s and the flux ratio of [O III] to H$beta$ < 3. Their properties a
We present a detailed comparative systematic study using a sample of 221 Narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies in comparison to a redshift matched sample of 154 Broad-line Seyfert 1 (BLSy1) galaxies based on their observations using ROSAT and/or XMM
We studied optical variability (OV) of a large sample of narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) and broad-line Seyfert 1 (BLSy1) galaxies with z<0.8 to investigate any differences in their OV properties. Using archival optical V-band light curves from the Cat
The {gamma}-ray detection from several radio-loud (RL) narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies has enabled us to study powerful relativistic jets in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) with smaller black hole masses and higher accretion rates than classical
