We investigate the spectral properties of the UV ($\lambda\lambda$2650-3050 \AA) and optical ($\lambda\lambda$4000-5500 \AA) Fe II emission features in a sample of 293 type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from Sloan Digital Sky Survey…

We review problems raised by Fe II emission in AGNs and address the question of its relationship to other broad-line region (BLR) lines. The self-shielding, stratified, BLR model of Gaskell, Klimek & Nazarova (2007; GKN) predicts that Fe II…
