Optical and UV properties of radio-quiet (RQ) and radio-loud (RL, relativistically "jetted") active galactic nuclei (AGN) are known to differ markedly; however, it is still unclear what is due to a sample selection and what is associated…
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…
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…
We present an empirical template spectrum suitable for fitting/subtracting and studying the FeII and FeIII line emission in the restframe UV spectra of active galatic nuclei (AGNs), the first empirical UV iron template to cover the full…
We investigate the spectral properties of the UV ($\lambda\lambda$2650-3050 \AA) and optical ($\lambda\lambda$4000-5500 \AA) Fe II emission features in a sample of 293 type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from Sloan Digital Sky Survey…
From detailed spectral analysis of a large sample of low-redshift active galactic nuclei (AGNs) selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we demonstrate---statistically for the first time---that narrow optical Fe II emission lines, both…
The narrow Fe K$\alpha$ line is one of the main signatures of the reprocessing of X-ray radiation from the material surrounding supermassive black holes, and it has been found to be omnipresent in the X-ray spectra of active galactic nuclei…
A wide-frequency radio study of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) is crucial to evaluate the intervening radiative mechanisms responsible for the observed emission and relate them with the underlying accretion physics. We present wide frequency…
We present a uniform X-ray spectral analysis of eight type-1 active galactic nuclei (AGN) that have been previously observed with relativistically broadened iron emission lines. Utilizing data from the XMM-Newton European Photon Imaging…
This paper discusses the properties of scattering--dominated active galactic nuclei (AGN). We define these to be AGN for which the direct line-of-sight to the continuum source is obscured by Compton-thick material. The aim is to construct,…
The origin of the radio emission in active galactic nuclei (AGN) is still debated. Multiple physical mechanisms can contribute to the spectrum at these frequencies, including relativistic jets, the jet base, outflows, star formation, and…
Results are presented of extended and refined optical identification of 181 radio/X-ray sources in the RASS-Green Bank (RGB) catalog which have been spectroscopically observed in the Sloan digital sky survey (SDSS) DR5. For 72 sources, the…
This paper presents new optical and near-UV spectra of 11 extremely powerful jetted quasars, with radio to optical flux density ratio $>$ 10$^3$, that concomitantly cover the low-ionization emission of \mgii\ and \hb\ as well as the \feii\…
We present the kinematical properties of the UV and optical \FeII\ emission gas based on the velocity shift and line width measurements of a sample of 223 Type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) at 0.4 $<$ z $<$ 0.8. We find a strong…
Constraining the physical conditions of the ionized media in the vicinity of an active supermassive black hole (SMBH) is crucial to understanding how these complex systems operate. Metal emission lines such as iron (Fe) are useful probes to…
For more than twenty years, strong Fe II emission lines have been observed in Active Galactic Nuclei and in particular in Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxies. A quick overview of the observations and of the models proposed to interpret the Fe II…
The spectrum of singly-ionized iron (Fe II) has been recorded using high-resolution Fourier transform and grating spectroscopy over the wavelength range 900 {\AA} to 5.5 {\mu}m. The spectra were observed in high-current continuous and…
We present a new empirical template for iron emission in active galactic nuclei (AGN) covering the $4000-5600$ A range. The new template is based on a spectrum of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 493 obtained with the Hubble Space…
In the last decade of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) monitoring programs, the Mets\"ahovi Radio Observatory detected multiple times seven powerful flaring narrow-line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies at 37 GHz. Several hypotheses have been proposed,…
Thirty years ago the optical counterpart of the x-ray source 1H0707-495 was discovered to be a 15th magnitude broad-line Seyfert galaxy with a rich Fe II emission line spectrum typical of the AGN subclass sometimes referred to as the I Zw 1…
