The Virial Factor f of the Hβ Broad Line for NGC 5548 and NGC 4151

The variability of virial factor f is investigated for two active galactic nuclei, NGC 5548 and NGC 4151, which had been previously reverberation mapped (RM) over 20 times in the past 30 yr. Using four velocity tracers from the broad H β width at half-maximum (FWHM _H _β ) or the line dispersion fro...
