Discovery of Metastable He I* λ10830 Mini-broad Absorption Lines and Very Narrow Paschen α Emission Lines in the ULIRG Quasar IRAS F11119+3257 [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2019
IRAS F11119+3257 is a quasar-dominated ultraluminous infrared galaxy, with a partially obscured narrow-line Seyfert 1 nucleus. In this paper, we present the near-IR (NIR) spectroscopy of F11119+3257, in which we find unusual Paschen emission lines and ...

The Optical/Near-Infrared Colors of Broad Absorption Line Quasars, Including the Candidate Radio-loud Broad Absorption Line Quasar 1556+3517 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
A candidate radio-loud broad absorption line (RLBALQ) has been recently reported by Becker et al. We present JHK observations of this object and three other radio-detected BALQs taken with the new Michigan-Dartmouth-MIT/Ohio State/Aladdin Infrared Camera

Simultaneous Existence of the Line-locking and Velocity Shift Signatures in Quasar SDSS J004613.54+010425.7

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study presents a detailed investigation of the broad absorption line (BAL) systems in the quasar SDSS J004613.54+010425.7 (hereafter J0046+0104), which makes characters of the simultaneous existence of line-locking and velocity shift signatures ...

Feasibility Study for Application of Digitized Henize Mt. Wilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \boldsymbol{\alpha} $$ Survey Low‐Dispersive Spectral Plates for Searches for Anomalous and Highly Redshifted Objects

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The goal of this study is to confirm the feasibility of the use of digitized low dispersive MtWilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \alpha $$ survey astronomical photographic plates for modern astrophysical research. The detection of highly redshifted objects, such as early galaxies and quasars, is fundamental to understanding the universe's ...

QSO 2359–1241: A Bright, Highly Polarized, Radio-moderate, Reddened, Low-Ionization Broad Absorption Line Quasar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We report the discovery of a bright quasar (E = 15.8, z = 0.868) associated with the flat-spectrum radio source NVSS J235953-124148. This quasar, which we designate QSO 2359-1241, possesses a rare combination of extreme properties that make it of special

Hidden No More: Spotlight on Tidal Disruption Events in Active Galactic Nuclei

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 5, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tidal disruption events (TDEs) are typically discovered in previously quiescent galaxies. However, earlier studies have revealed a handful of TDEs occurring in pre‐existing active galactic nuclei (AGN). We discuss AT2019aalc, a promising TDE candidate in an AGN, and compare it to similar sources.

Absorption-Line Study of Halo Gas in NGC 3067 toward the Background Quasar 3C 232 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We present new H I 21 cm absorption data and ultraviolet spectroscopy from Hubble Space Telescope/Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph of the QSO/galaxy pair 3C 232/NGC 3067. The QSO sight line lies near the minor axis and 1.′8 (11 h kpc) above the plane

Reacceleration of a C iv Broad Absorption Line in Quasar SDSS J083817.00+295526.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a rare signature of reacceleration in a C iv broad absorption line (BAL) of the quasar SDSS J083817.00+295526.5. This quasar showcases three distinct BAL systems, labeled as systems A, B, and C.
