Scientific paper

AGN with double-peaked narrow lines have attracted recent attention as candidates for binary AGN in galaxy mergers. However, double-peaked lines can also result from bipolar jets or rotating disks. We examine tests of these possibilities involving the properties of the emission lines. Indicators based on the velocity separation of the components suggest that objects with equal intensity peaks may be rotating disks.
