Quasars are among the most luminous sources characterized by their broad band spectra ranging from radio through optical to X-ray band, with numerous emission and absorption features. Using the Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Boroson &…

Quasars are complex sources, characterized by broad band spectra from radio through optical to X-ray band, with numerous emission and absorption features. However, Boroson & Green (1992) used Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and with…

Eigenvector 1 (EV1) was found to be the dominant component behind the significant correlations for the measured parameters in quasar spectra (Boroson & Green, 1992). The parameter R$_{\mathrm{FeII}}$, which strongly correlates to the EV1,…

This work aimed to find the relationship between quasars' optical variability and spectral features to reveal the regularity behind the random variation. It is known that quasar's FeII/Hbeta flux ratio and equivalent width of [OIII]5007 are…

[Latex markup removed] We recently discussed an Eigenvector 1 (E1) parameter space that provides optimal discrimination between the principal classes of broad-line Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). In this paper we begin a search for the most…

The work initially started as a test to retrace the Shen & Ho (2014) Quasar Main Sequence diagram where they claimed that the parameter RFeII, which defines the Eigenvector 1 (EV1) is driven by the Eddington ratio alone. We subsequently…

The work initially started as a test to retrace the Shen & Ho (2014) Quasar Main Sequence diagram where they (and references therein) claimed that the parameter RFeII, which defines the Eigenvector 1 (EV1) is driven by the Eddington ratio…

The well-documented E1 relationships are first extended to infrared color $\alpha(60,25)$ and flux ratio [OIII]/H$\beta_{\rm{n}}$ by comparing emission line properties to continuum properties in infrared wavelength. Both direct correlations…

The Eigenvector 1 schema, or the main sequence of quasars, was introduced as an analogous scheme to the HR diagram that would allow us to understand the more complex, extended sources - active galactic nuclei (AGNs) that harbor accreting…

Quasars are rapidly accreting supermassive black holes at the center of massive galaxies. They display a broad range of properties across all wavelengths, reflecting the diversity in the physical conditions of the regions close to the…

We present high S/N spectra of the H-beta region in 17 intermediate redshift (0.85 le z le 2.5) quasars. The spectra represent first results of our campaign to test the redshift/luminosity robustness of the so-called Eigenvector 1 (E1)…

Highly accreting quasars are characterized by distinguishing properties in the 4D eigenvector 1 parameter space that make them easily recognizable over a broad range range of redshift and luminosity. The 4D eigenvector 1 approach allows us…

We present a statistical analysis of the optical properties of an X-ray selected Type 1 AGN sample, using high signal to-noise ratio ($S/N>20$) spectra of the counterparts of the ROSAT/2RXS sources in the footprint of the SDSS-IV/SPIDERS…

We introduce a new physical parameter, the optical variability amplitude, to the well-established Eigenvector 1 space of quasars and test a sample of long-term B-band light curves of 42 PG quasars monitored by Giveon et al. (1999). We find…

We identify a correlation space involving optical and UV emission line parameters as well as the soft X-ray spectral index that provides optimal discrimination between all principal classes of active galactic nuclei. Most of the sources in…

While quasar outflows may be quasi-ubiquitous, there are significant differences on a source-by- source basis. These differences can be organized along the 4D Eigenvector 1 sequence: at least at low z, with only Population A sources…

The quasar main sequence (QMS), characterized by the Eigenvector 1 (EV1), serves as a unifying framework for classifying type-1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) based on their diverse spectral properties. Although a fully self-consistent…

We present the analysis of X-ray spectral varability made on a sample of 7 Seyfert 1 bright galaxies, using XMM-Newton data. From the "XMM-Newton Science Archive" we selected those bright Seyfert 1 showing one or more prominent flares in…

Narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies are defined on the basis of their line widths, and they are generally considered to be high Eddington ratio sources. But in the context of the Quasar Main Sequence, high Eddington rate sources are those which…

The spectra of BL Lac objects and Fanaroff-Riley I radio galaxies are commonly explained by the one-zone leptonic synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) model. Spectral modeling of correlated multiwavelength data gives the comoving magnetic field…
