Intervening Broad-Line Region Clouds' Effects on the Optical/Ultraviolet Spectrum

Recent X-ray observations of Mrk 766 suggest that broad emission-line region clouds cross our line of sight and produce variable X-ray absorption. Here we investigate what optical/ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopic features would be produced by such ‘intervening broad-line region (BLR) clouds’ (IBC) crossing our line of sight to the accretion disc, the source of the optical/UV continuum. Although t...

The Broad Line Region of Quasars

The last decade saw long-awaited improvements in our understanding of active galactic nuclei (AGN) spectral properties. This contribution reviews some important observational results obtained from optical and UV data as well as constraints on physical parameters that control the structure and dynamics of the Broad Line Region.

The UV–Optical Albedo of Broad Emission Line Clouds

We explore the effective UV–optical albedos of a variety of types of broad emission line clouds, as well as their possible effects on the observed spectra of AGN. An important albedo source in moderately ionized ionization-bounded clouds is that due to neutral hydrogen: Rayleigh scattering of continuum photons off the extreme damping wings of Lyα. The photons resulting from this scattering mech...

The Variable Diffuse Continuum Emission of Broad Line Clouds

We investigate the wavelength-dependent intensity and reverberation properties of the UV-optical diffuse continuum emission expected from broad emission line gas. The “locally optimally-emitting clouds” picture is adopted, with the cloud distribution functions in gas density and distance from the ionizing source determined by a fit to the mean UV emission line spectrum from the 1993 HST campaig...
