In the optical range of the spectrum, a possible signature of the accretion disc is the presence of a broad double-peaked component that is mostly seen in H$\\alpha$. In this paper, we report the detection of a double-peaked feature in the H$\\alpha$ line in the nucleus of the galaxy NGC 4958. The narrow line region of this object has an emission that is typical of a LINER galaxy, which is the usual classification for double-peaked emitters. A central broad component, related to the broad line region (BLR) of this object, is seen in H$\\alpha$ and also in H$\\beta$. We concluded that the double-peaked emission is emitted by a circular relativistic Keplerian disc with an inner radius $\\xi_{\\rm i}$ = 570$\\pm$ 83, an outer radius $\\xi_{\\rm o}$ = 860$\\pm$170 (both in units of $GM_{\\rm SMBH}/c^2$), an inclination to the line of sight $i$ = 27.2$^o \\pm$0.7$^o$ and a local broadening parameter $\\sigma$ = 1310$\\pm$70 km s$^{-1}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-04-05T14:43:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "accretion disc", "circular relativistic keplerian disc", "broad line region", "central broad component", "narrow line region" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
