The $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$ Spectra Atlas of Type 1 Active Galactic Nuclei with AKARI: Establishing the Black Hole Mass Estimator of Active Galactic Nuclei with Hydrogen Brackett Lines

The $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$ spectrum of AGN was poorly understood due to the atmosphere effect beyond $2{\mu}m$. Nevertheless, the $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$ range includes several important lines, such as $Br{\beta}$ ($2.63{\mu}m$), $Br{\alpha}$ ($4.05{\mu}m$), PAH (3.3${\mu}m$) and many molecular or atomic lines. We compile $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$ spectra of 79 AGNs and QSOs from infrared camera (IRC) on AKARI infrared astronomy satellite. Our $2.5-5.0{\mu}m$ spectra will provide an access to full wavelength spectra of AGNs for the first time. Moreover, we present the Brackett line properties, FWHMs and luminosities, of AGNs. Using these Brackett line properties, we derive new black hole (BH) mass estimators. The new BH mass estimators using NIR hydrogen lines will be very useful to estimate BH mass of dusty red AGNs in the future.
