An Internet Database of Ultraviolet Lightcurves for Seyfert Galaxies
read the original abstract
Using the Multimission Archives at Space Telescope (MAST), we have extracted spectra and determined continuum light curves for 175 Seyfert Galaxies that have been observed with the International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE) and the Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). To obtain the light curves as a function of Julian Date, we used fix bins in the object's rest frame, and measured small regions (between 30 and 60 Angstroms) of each spectrum's continuum flux in the range 1150 Angstroms to 3200 Angstroms. We provide access to the UV light curves and other basic information about the observations in tabular and graphical form via the Internet at http://www.chara.gsu.edu/PEGA/IUE/.
