The first binary neutron star merger, detected through both electromagnetic radiation and gravitational waves on the 17th of August 2017, raised the question whether a narrow relativistic jet or a more isotropic outflow was launched as a consequence of the merger.

QSFit: Automatic analysis of optical AGN spectra

1 code implementation5 Dec 2016 G. Calderone, L. Nicastro, G. Ghisellini, M. Dotti, T. Sbarrato, F. Shankar, M. Colpi

Improving on a number of previous studies on AGN spectral analysis, QSFit fits all the components simultaneously, using an AGN continuum model which extends over the entire available spectrum, and is thus a probe of the actual AGN continuum whose estimates are scarcely influenced by localized features (e. g. emission lines) in the spectrum.
