Description
Two broad components in the strongest UV emission lines of NGC 5548 are identified. The components respond differently to continuum changes. A normal broad (5000 km/sec) line is related to the UV flux, but the data-set only provides an upper limit for the possible lag. The very broad (10000 km/sec) line does not appear to be affected by continuum changes. The physical conditions in the BLR and VBLR seem to be widely different.

    Generating galaxy clusters mass density maps from mock multiview images via deep learning
    Galaxy clusters are composed of dark matter, gas and stars. Their dark matter component, which amounts to around 80% of the total mass, cannot be directly observed but traced by the distribution of diffused gas and galaxy members. In this work, we aim to infer the cluster's projected total mass distribution from mock observational data, i.e. stars

    A machine learning method to infer clusters of galaxies mass radial profiles from mock Sunyaev-Zel'dovich maps with The Three Hundred clusters
    Our study introduces a new machine learning algorithm for estimating 3D cumulative radial profiles of total and gas mass in galaxy clusters from thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect maps. We generate mock images from 2522 simulated clusters, employing an autoencoder and random forest in our approach. Notably, our model makes no prior assumptions
