contents Near Infrared (0.8-2.3 µM) Coronal Lines in Active Galactic Nuclei Alberto Rodríguez-Ardila J. G. Portilla Juan Manuel Tejeiro Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas rays: galaxies Galaxies: active galaxies: nuclei An analysis of Coronal Lines (CLs) emitted in the near IR (0.8 a 2.3 µm) is presented for a sample of 54 activegalaxies. It is found that CLs are prone to appear more in Type 2 galaxies than in Type 1. The existence of some energetic CLs almost in equal percentage for both type of objects could indicate that the inner face ofthe torus is not a strong emission region of CLs. It is observed that the majority of NLS1 galaxies tend topresent a correlation between the FWHM and the ionization potential; however that correlation holds in lessthan half of the Type 2 and "Normal" Type 1 galaxies. Finally, it is also observed a weak correlation betweenthe soft X-ray luminosity (0.1-2.4 keV) and the luminosity of the most conspicuous CLs. 2008 artículo científico 0185-1101 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57103228 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=571 Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica application/pdf Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México Revista Mexicana de Astronomía y Astrofísica (México) Vol.32
