Scientific paper

Double Peaked (DP) AGN show broad double-peaked profiles around Balmer and Mg II emission lines. Around 150 DP AGN are known at present. The accretion disk models can fit only ˜50% of DP profiles (Lewis & Eracleous 2006) and the origin of the rest DP profiles is still not well understood. We aim to explore the physical characteristics of the central engine of DP emitters. Here, we present a relation between the accretion rate and BH mass for DP AGN.
