Low-luminosity type-1 QSO sample. V.
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present near-infrared (NIR) H+K-band long-slit spectra of eleven galaxies that were obtained with SOFI at the NTT (ESO).
Description
The galaxies are chosen from the low-luminosity type-1 quasi-stellar object (LLQSO) sample, which comprises the 99 closest (z<=0.06) QSOs from the Hamburg/ESO survey for bright UV-excess QSOs. These objects are ideal targets to study the gap between local Seyfert galaxies and high-redshift quasars because they show much stronger AGN activity than local objects, but are still close enough for a detailed structural analysis.
We fit hydrogen recombination, molecular hydrogen, and [FeII] lines after carefully subtracting the continuum emission. From the broad Pa{alpha} components, we estimated black hole masses and enlarged the sample of LLQSOs that deviate from the MBH-Lbulge relations of inactive galaxies from 12 to 16 objects. All objects show emission from hot dust (T~1200K) as well as stellar contribution.

However, the respective fractions vary strongly among the objects. More than half of the objects show H_2_ emission lines, which indicate a large reservoir of molecular gas that is needed to feed the AGN and star formation. In the NIR diagnostic diagram all objects lie in the location of AGN-dominated objects.
However, most of the objects show indications of star formation activity, suggesting that their offset location with respect to MBH-Lbulge relations of inactive galaxies may be a consequence of overluminous bulges.
