Optical Spectroscopic Atlas of the MOJAVE/2cm AGN Sample. (2012). Revista Mexicana De Astronomía Y Astrofísica, 48(1), 9-40. https://astronomia.unam.mx/journals/rmxaa/article/view/2012rmxaa..48....9t

Abstract

We present an optical spectroscopic atlas for 123 core-dominated radio-loud active galactic nuclei with relativistic jets, drawn from the MOJAVE/2cm sample at 15 GHz. It is the first time that spectroscopic and photometric parameters for a large sample of such type of AGN are presented. The atlas includes spectral parameters for the emission lines H β, [O III]λ5007, Mg IIλ2798 and/or C IVλ1549 and corresponding data for the continuum, as well as the luminosities and equivalent widths of the Fe IV UV/optical. It also contains homogeneous photometric information in the B-band for 242 sources of the sample, with a distribution peak at B_J = 18.0 and a magnitude interval of 11.1 ≤ B_J ≤ 23.7.
