Many active galactic nuclei (AGN) and particularly narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies, usually exhibit blueshifts and blue wings in several emission lines, which are mainly associated with outflows and strong winds. In order to study the…
The enigmatic population of ``Little Red Dots'' (LRDs) sit at the center of some of the largest debates in extragalactic astronomy today. The source(s) of ionizing emission and the physical scale over which it governs is still largely…
The discovery of a broad, $\sim$1.5$^{\circ}$ long filamentary [OIII] 5007 emission $\sim$1.2$^{\circ}$ south-east of the M31 nucleus has recently been reported. More than 100 hours of exposures of a wide field (3.48$^{\circ} \times…
We investigate the radial velocity difference between the narrow emission-line components of [O III] $\lambda$ 5007 and H$\beta$ in a sample of 150 SDSS NLS1s. Seven "blue outliers" with [O III] blueshifted by more than 250 \kms are found.…
We investigate the radial velocity difference between the [OIII]5007,4959 and H-beta lines for a sample of 200 low redshift AGN. We identify seven objects showing an [OIII]5007 blueshift relative to H-beta with amplitude larger than 250…
Results of the analysis of the variability of the H$\beta$ and H$\alpha$ broad emission-line profiles and the He II $\lambda4686$A emission-line fluxes in the 3C 390.3 nucleus during 1992-2014 are present. The observed velocity-dependent…
We have studied variability of the spectral lines of the OB star $\delta $Ori A--the brightest component of the $\delta $Ori triple system. Forty spectra with signal-to-noise ratios $\approx$500--800 and a time resolution of four minutes…
Three sets of two-component profiles are used to simultaneously model the [O III]$\lambda\lambda$4959, 5007 and H$\beta$ lines for the Fe II-subtracted spectra of 149 narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLSls) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey…
We use homogeneous samples of radio-quiet Seyfert 1 galaxies and QSOs selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to investigate the connection between the velocity shift and the equivalent width (EW) of the [OIII] 5007 emission line, and…
In this letter, we checked spectral properties of the well-known narrow line Seyfert I Mrk142, in order to try to find effects of narrow line variability on BLR radius of Mrk142 which is an outlier in the R-L plane. Although, no improvement…
We have studied the Ly-al, Hbeta, Halpha and Mg II2798 line profiles of the Seyfert 1 galaxy III Zw 2. The shapes of these broad emission lines show evidence of a multicomponent origin and also features which may be identified as the peaks…
2D spectroscopy of Q0957+561 in the CIII]lambda1909 emission line reveals a rich variety of spatially extended features. We point out: (i) a blueshifted region apparently connecting the A and B compact images; (ii) an almost complete arc in…
For a sample of $\sim$80 local ($0.02 \leq z \leq 0.1$) Seyfert-1 galaxies with high-quality long-slit Keck spectra and spatially-resolved stellar-velocity dispersion ($\sigma_{\star}$) measurements, we study the profile of the…
We study the possibility that the very broad (~1500 km/s) and luminous (L_5007 ~ 1.4e37 erg/s) [OIII] line emission observed in the globular cluster RZ 2109 might be explained with the photoionization of nova ejecta by the bright (L_X ~…
Based on the IUE SWP spectra obtained between 1978 and 1994, the variations of the UV continuum and the Ly-alpha and C IV emission lines of the broad-line radio galaxy 3C390.3 are studied. The UV continuum between 1220 and 1990 A has varied…
[Abridged] We investigate the physical properties of a Lyman continuum emitter candidate at $z=3.212$ with photometric coverage from $U$ to MIPS 24$\mu$m band and VIMOS/VLT and MOSFIRE/Keck spectroscopy. Investigation of the UV spectrum…
Moderate-resolution spectra of the H$\beta$--[O III] $\lambda$5007 region have been obtained for 41 radio-loud quasars in order to investigate relationships among their broad- and narrow-line profiles, radio structures, and X-ray…
We present spatially resolved spectroscopic images of the gravitationally lensed QSO 2237+0305 taken with the GMOS Integral Field Unit (IFU) on the Gemini North telescope. These observations have the best spatial resolution of any IFU…
We present near-infrared spectra of seven radio-loud quasars with a median redshift of 2.1, five of which were previously known to have Ly alpha nebulae. Extended [OIII]5007 and H alpha emission are evident around six objects, at the level…
We divide a sample of 302 type-1 AGNs into two subsamples based on the narrow line [OIII]/Hbeta_{NLR} ratio, since we expect that there will be a stronger starburst (HII region) contribution to the narrow line emission for…
