Scientific paper

Fe ii comprises up to one third of the line emission in AGNs. For that reason it is an important coolant that needs to be taken into account to fully understand the energetics of the broad line region (BLR). As such, Fe+ is a potential diagnostic of gas density, column density, turbulence, temperature and continuum shape. However, understanding Fe ii is complicated because of the energy level configuration and different mechanisms that may contribute to the line emission.
