摘要
By means of the data sets from the Pan-STARRS1 survey, we have systematically examined the relationship between the variability characteristics and the physical parameters of the largest NLS1 galaxy sample up to now.The results are summarized as follows:(1). We find significant anti-correlations between variability amplitude and absolute magnitude in g, r, i, z and y bands, which are consistent with the results in previous works.(2) The correlations between the variability amplitude in optical band and many physical parameters(e.g., λL(5100 A),black hole mass, Eddington ratio, R;and R;) are investigated. The results show the variability amplitude is significantly anti-correlated with L(5100 A), MBH, Eddington ratio and R_(4570), but positively correlated with R;.The relation could be explained by the simple standard accretion disk model.(3) We further investigate the relationship between optical variability and radio luminosity/radio-loudness. The results present weak positive correlation in g and r bands, but insignificant correlation in i, z and y bands. The large error of the approximate fraction of the host galaxy in i, z and y bands may lead to insignificant correlations.
