We present dynamical modeling of the broad line region ( BLR ) for a sample of five Seyfert 1 galaxies using reverberation mapping data taken by the Lick AGN Monitoring Project in 2008 .
By modeling the AGN continuum light curve and H \beta line profiles directly we are able to constrain the geometry and kinematics of the BLR and make a measurement of the black hole mass that does not depend upon the virial factor , f , needed in traditional reverberation mapping analysis .
We find that the geometry of the BLR is generally a thick disk viewed close to face-on .
While the H \beta emission is found to come preferentially from the far side of the BLR , the mean size of the BLR is consistent with the lags measured with cross-correlation analysis .
The BLR kinematics are found to be consistent with either inflowing motions or elliptical orbits , often with some combination of the two .
We measure black hole masses of \log _ { 10 } ( M _ { BH } / M _ { \odot } ) = 6.62 ^ { +0.10 } _ { -0.13 } for Arp 151 , 7.42 ^ { +0.26 } _ { -0.27 } for Mrk 1310 , 7.51 ^ { +0.23 } _ { -0.14 } for NGC 5548 , 6.42 ^ { +0.24 } _ { -0.18 } for NGC 6814 , and 6.99 ^ { +0.32 } _ { -0.25 } for SBS 1116+583A .
The f factors measured individually for each AGN are found to correlate with inclination angle , although not with M _ { BH } , L _ { 5100 } , or FWHM/ \sigma of the emission line profile .
