The broad-line region and dust torus size of the Seyfert 1 galaxy PGC50427

We present the results of a three years monitoring campaigns of the $z = 0.024$ type-1 active galactic nucleus (AGN) PGC50427. Through the use of Photometric Reverberation Mapping with broad and narrow band filters, we determine the size of the broad-line emitting region by measuring the time delay between the variability of the continuum and the H$α$ emission line. The H$α$ emission line responds to blue continuum variations with an average rest frame lag of $19.0 \pm 1.23$ days. Using single epoch spectroscopy we determined a broad-line H$α$ velocity width of 1020 km s$^{-1}$ and in combination with the rest frame lag and adoption a geometric scaling factor $f = 5.5$, we calculate a black hole mass of $M_{BH} \sim 17 \times 10^{6} M_{\odot}$. Using the flux variation gradient method, we separate the host galaxy contribution from that of the AGN to calculate the rest frame 5100Å~ luminosity at the time of our monitoring campaign. The rest frame lag and the host-subtracted luminosity permit us to derive the position of PGC50427 in the BLR size -- AGN luminosity diagram, which is remarkably close to the theoretically expected relation of $R \propto L^{0.5}$. The simultaneous optical and NIR ($J$ and $K_{s}$) observations allow us to determine the size of the dust torus through the use of dust reverberation mapping method. We find that the hot dust emission ($\sim 1800K$) lags the optical variations with an average rest frame lag of $46.2 \pm 2.60$ days. The dust reverberation radius and the nuclear NIR luminosity permit us to derive the position of PGC50427 on the known $τ- M{V}$ diagram. The simultaneus observations for the broad-line region and dust thermal emission demonstrate that the innermost dust torus is located outside the BLR in PGC50427, supporting the unified scheme for AGNs.
