The remarkable similarity between emission spectra of narrow line regions (NLR) in Seyfert Galaxies has long presented a mystery. In photoionization models, this similarity implies that the ionization parameter is nearly always the same,…

Seyfert narrow line region (NLR) emission line ratios are remarkably uniform, displaying only ~0.5 dex variation between galaxies, and even less within an individual object. Previous photoionization and shock models of this region were…

The photoionization model of narrow-line regions (NLRs) in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) has been investigated for decades. Many published models are restricted to simple linear scaling abundance relations, dust-free assumption, uniform AGN…

Seyfert narrow line regions (NLR) have emission line ratios which are remarkably uniform, displaying only ~0.5 dex variation between different galaxies. Existing models have been unable to explain these observations without the introduction…

The narrow line region of active galaxies is formed by gas clouds surrounded by a diluted gas. Standard one-dimensional photoionization models are usually used to model this region in order to reproduce the observed emission lines. Since…

Narrow Line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies have recently received a lot of attention due to their unusual optical--X-ray properties which are not yet well understood. Photoionization models of the circum-nuclear emission/absorption regions…

We present a grid of photoionization models for the emission from photoevaporative interfaces between the ionized gas and molecular cloud in blister HII regions. For the density profiles of the emitting gas in the models, we use a general…

Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are characterized by similar broad emission lines properties at all luminosities ($10^{39}$-$10^{47}$ erg s$^{-1}$). What produces this similarity over a vast range of $10^8$ in luminosity? Photoionization is…

We present a far-ultraviolet (PDR) and an X-ray dominated region (XDR) code. We include and discuss thermal and chemical processes that pertain to irradiated gas. An elaborate chemical network is used and a careful treatment of PAHs and H2…

We present multi-component photoionization models allowing for local density inhomogeneities in the NLR to interpret the emission line spectra of Seyfert 2 galaxies. This approach leads to a successful match of a large set of line…

The strong broad emission lines in the optical and UV spectra of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are important for several reasons. Not only do they give us information about the structure of the AGN, their properties are now used to estimate…

The observed faintness of infrared fine-structure line emission along with the warm far-infrared (FIR) colors of ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) is a long-standing problem. In this work, we calculate the line and continuum…

We have investigated the physical conditions in the narrow-line region (NLR) of M51 using long-slit spectra obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and 3.6 cm radio continuum…

Gas metallicity, ionization parameter, and gas pressure can affect the observed ratios of specific strong emission lines within galaxies. While the theoretical strong lines diagnostics for gas metallicity, ionization parameters, and gas…

The narrow emission line spectra of active galactic nuclei are not accurately described by simple photoionization models of single clouds. Recent Hubble Space Telescope images of Seyfert 2 galaxies show that these objects are rich with…

We present CI 3P1-3P0 spectra at four spiral arm positions and the nuclei of the nearby galaxies M83 and M51 obtained at the JCMT. This data is complemented with maps of CO 1-0, 2-1, and 3-2, and ISO/LWS far-infrared data of CII (158…

In this research note, we start exploring the influence of the narrow line region (NLR) on the optical/UV continuum polarization of active galactic nuclei (AGN). We have upgraded our previous 3-component model of a thermal Seyfert nucleus…

We present the revised ``Meudon'' model of Photon Dominated Region (PDR code), presently available on the web under the Gnu Public Licence at: http://aristote.obspm.fr/MIS. General organisation of the code is described down to a level that…

A grid of composite models for the narrow line region of active galaxies, which consistently account for both the effect of a photoionizing radiation from the active center and of a shock front, is presented. Theoretical results, calculated…

After briefly reviewing the impact of various parameters on photoionization models, we illustrate the importance of the nebular geometry by two examples: we first compare the results from models with thin shell and full shell geometry, and…
