Explaining the UV to X-ray correlation in active galactic nuclei within the framework of X-ray illumination of accretion discs

Fig. 7.

Left: Average correlations between log ṁ/ṁ_Edd, log M_BH, and L_transf/L_disc, similar to Fig. 3 considering different values of the scatter around the best-fit L_2 keV–L_2500 Å correlation ranging between 0.5σ and 3σ. Right: Distribution of log M_BH, log ṁ/ṁ_Edd, and L_transf/L_disc (top to bottom) for the selected subset of SEDs that agree with the observed L_2 keV − L_2500 Å correlation assuming a scatter around the best fit between 0.5σ and 3σ.
