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…

Broad Fe II emission is a prominent feature of the optical and ultraviolet spectra of quasars. We report on a systematical investigation of optical Fe II emission in a large sample of 4037 z < 0.8 quasars selected from the Sloan Digital Sky…

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 explore the influence of optical Fe II quasi-continuum on the measured spectral parameters in the 4150-5500 A range for the spectra of Type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs). We assume that the broad line region is composed of two…

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…

Optical Fe II emission is a strong feature in quasar spectra originating in the broad-line region (BLR). The difficulty in understanding the complex Fe II pseudo-continuum has led us to search for other reliable, simpler ionic species such…

The Eddington ratio is a key parameter that governs the diversity of quasar properties. It can be scaled with a strong anti-correlation between optical Fe II and [O III] emission. In search of such indicators in the far-UV band, the HST…

We used a large, homogeneous sample of 4178 z <= 0.8 Seyfert 1 galaxies and QSOs selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to investigate the strength of Fe II emission and its correlation with other emission lines and physical parameters…

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…

The enrichment of Fe, relative to alpha-elements such as O and Mg, represents a potential means to determine the age of quasars and probe the galaxy formation epoch. To explore how \ion{Fe}{2} emission in quasars is linked to physical…

We present the spectra of 14 quasars with a wide coverage of rest wavelengths from 1000 to 7300 A. The redshift ranges from z = 0.061 to 0.555 and the luminosity from M_{B} = -22.69 to -26.32. We describe the procedure of generating the…

The concept of the quasar main sequence is very attractive since it stresses correlations between various parameters and implies the underlying simplicity. In the optical plane defined by the width of the H\{beta} line and the ratio of the…

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…

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…

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,…

The last 25 years saw a major step forward in the analysis of optical and UV spectroscopic data of large quasar samples. Multivariate statistical approaches have led to the definition of systematic trends in observational properties that…

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.…

Both the Fe II UV emission in the 2000- 3000 A region [Fe II (UV)] and resonance emission line complex of Mg II at 2800 A are prominent features in quasar spectra. The observed Fe II UV/ Mg II emission ratios have been proposed as means to…

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…

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…
