NGC 7679 is a nearby luminous infrared Sy2 galaxy in which starburst and AGN activities co-exist. The ionization structure is maintained by both the AGN power-law continuum and starburst. The galaxy is a bright X-ray source possessing a low…
We analyze several key rest-optical emission-line ratios in a sample of 828 galaxies as well as composite spectra from JADES DR3 in the range $1.4 < z < 7$. These emission-line ratios include: [O III]$\lambda5008$/H$\beta$, [N II]$\lambda…
This is a theoretical investigation on the formation of the linearly polarized line spectrum of ionized cerium in the sun. We calculate the scattering line polarization pattern emergent from a plane-parallel layer of Ce {\sc ii} atoms…
The electron temperatures of high-metallicity (12+log(O/H) > 8.2) HII regions have been studied. The empirical ff relations which express the nebular-to- auroral [OIII] line ratio Q_3,O (as well as the nebular-to-auroral [OII] line ratio…
It has long been shown that the extreme ultraviolet spectrum of the ionizing stars of H II regions can be estimated by comparing the observed line emission to detailed models. In the Galactic Center (GC), however, previous observations have…
We present results of the ASCA observation of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 4507. The 0.5-10 keV spectrum is rather complex and consists of several components: (1) a hard X-ray power law heavily absorbed by a column density of about 3 10^23…
Transition region (TR) spectra typically show the Si IV 1402.8 A line to be enhanced by a factor of 5 or more compared to the neighboring O IV 1401.2 A, contrary to predictions of ionization equilibrium models and the Maxwellian…
Spectroscopic studies of extreme-ionization galaxies (EIGs) are critical to our understanding of exotic systems throughout cosmic time. These EIGs exhibit spectral features requiring >54.42 eV photons: the energy needed to fully ionize…

We have collected emission line ([Oiii] 5007 and Halpha+[Nii]) and radio continuum images for a volume limited (cz <= 3600 km/s) sample of southern Seyfert galaxies. The optical data were obtained at ESO using the 2.2 m, NTT and 3.6 m…

We study the hotspots of powerful radiogalaxies, where electrons accelerated at the jet termination shock emit synchrotron radiation. The turnover of the synchrotron spectrum is typically observed between infrared and optical frequencies,…
In this study, we investigate the line emissions from cold molecular gas based on our previous "radiation-driven fountain model" (Wada 2016), which reliably explains the spectral energy distribution of the nearest type 2 Seyfert galaxy, the…
We have found a sample of extreme emission-line galaxies (EELGs) with strong [OIII]$\lambda$5007 emission at z $\sim$ 0.5. Using broadband photometric selection and requiring small uncertainties in photometry, we searched the 14th Data…
Using the temperature and ionization calculated in our previous paper, we model the spectral evolution of SN 1987A. The IR-catastrophe is seen in the metal lines as a transition from thermal to non-thermal excitation, most clearly in the [O…
We present rest-frame optical spectra of 60 faint ($R_{AB}\sim 27$; $L\sim0.1 L_*$) Ly$\alpha$-selected galaxies (LAEs) at $z\approx2.56$. The average LAE is consistent with the extreme low-metallicity end of the continuum-selected galaxy…
It has been proposed that the width of the narrow [O III] 5007 emission line can be used as a surrogate for the stellar velocity dispersion in active galaxies. This proposition is tested using the SDSS EDR spectra of 107 low-redshift…
