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 use a sample of Type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) spectra in order to investigate which atomic processes are responsible for some observed properties of the FeII emission lines and how they are connected with macroscopic physical…
We investigated the optical FeII emission in a sample of about 215 low-redshift AGN (quasars and luminous Seyfert 1 galaxies). We find that a scaled and broadened FeII template based on the I Zw 1 spectrum can satisfactorily model the FeII…
Understanding the Fe II emission from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) has been a grand challenge for many decades. The rewards from understanding the AGN spectra would be immense, involving both quasar classification schemes such as…
We investigate FeII emission in Broad Line Region (BLR) of AGNs by analyzing the FeII(UV), FeII(4570) and MgII emission lines in 884 quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar catalog in a redshift range of 0.727 < z < 0.804.…
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…
Active galactic nuclei (AGN) have Fe II emission from the broad line region (BLR) that differs greatly in strength from object to object. We examine the role of the total and gas-phase iron abundance in determining Fe II strength. Using AGN…
Using a large sample of Type 1 AGN spectra, we investigated the complex structure of the Fe II emission region in order to understand the atomic processes responsible for the enhancement of the Fe II emission. We explored correlations…
We used a very large set of models of broad emission line (BEL) clouds in AGN to investigate the formation of the observed Fe II emission lines. We show that photoionized BEL clouds cannot produce both the observed shape and observed…
From detailed spectral analysis of a large sample of low-redshift active galactic nuclei (AGNs) selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we demonstrate---statistically for the first time---that narrow optical Fe II emission lines, both…
We present a study of FeII emission in the near-infrared region (NIR) for 25 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) to obtain information about the excitation mechanisms that power it and the location where it is formed. We employ a NIR FeII…
It was suggested that the prominent feature of the optical Fe II emission has a connection with the accretion process in active galactic nuclei (AGN). For a large sample of 4037 quasars ($z < 0.8$) with measured $\rm H\beta$ line dispersion…
Fe II emission is a well-known contributor to the UV spectra of active galactic nuclei and the modeling of this part may affect the results obtained for the MgII$\lambda2800$ emission, which is one of the lines used for black hole mass…
We obtained 0.8-2.4 micron spectra at a resolution of 320 km/s of four narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies in order to study the near-infrared properties of these objects. We focus on the analysis of the FeII emission in that region and the…
We perform a census of ionized gas outflows using a sample of ~23,000 type 2 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) out to z~0.1. By measuring the velocity offset of narrow emission lines, i.e., [O III] {\lambda}5007 and H{\alpha}, with respect to…
We present theoretical iron emission line strengths for physical conditions typical of Active Galactic Nuclei with Broad-Line Regions. The non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) models include a new and extensive treatment of radiative…
The issue of the difference between optical and UV properties of radio-quiet and radio-loud (relativistically "jetted") active galactic nuclei (AGN) is a long standing one, related to the fundamental question of why a minority of powerful…
Soft X-ray emission (0.5--2.0 keV) plays a pivotal role in regulating the optical and UV emission in the AGNs. We collected a sample of 1811 AGNs from the SDSS database and obtained various parameters of Balmer lines, optical continuum,…
We study large-scale outflows in a sample of 96 star-forming galaxies at 1<z<2, using near-UV spectroscopy of FeII and MgII absorption and emission. The average blueshift of the FeII interstellar absorption lines with respect to the…
Here we present a critical view of practical problems in the analysis of optical Fe II emission lines of Type 1 AGN spectra. Besides the very complex and unclear physical interpretation of the Fe II template shape, there are other issues…
