FeII and FeI emission in IRAS 07598+6508 and PHL 1092
arXiv:astro-ph/9409095 · doi:10.1086/175302
Abstract
One of the puzzles in understanding the spectra of active galactic nuclei (AGN) is the origin of the FeII emission. FeI emission, if present, will help reveal the physical conditions of the emitting gas. In an attempt to verify the presence of FeI lines, high S/N spectra of two FeII-strong quasars, IRAS 07598-6508 and PHL 1092, were obtained at the Multiple Mirror Telescope and the Steward 2.3 m Telescope. We have identified emission lines of FeI and TiII. The source of energy for FeII, FeI and TiII emission is probably not from ionization by the photon continuum, but heat. The high rate of energy generation and the presence of both high and low velocity gas indicate that the heat is generated not over a large area, but a narrow band in accretion disk, in which the rotational speed decreases rapidly.
