The enrichment of Fe, relative to alpha-elements such as O and Mg, represents a potential means to determine the age of quasars and probe the galaxy formation epoch. To explore how ion{Fe}{2} emission in quasars is linked to physical conditions and abundance, we have constructed a 830-level ion{Fe}{2} model atom and investigated through photoionization calculations how ion{Fe}{2} emission strengths depend on non-abundance factors. We have split ion{Fe}{2} emission into three major wavelength bands, ion{Fe}{2} (UV), ion{Fe}{2}(Opt1), and ion{Fe}{2}(Opt2), and explore how the ion{Fe}{2}(UV)/ion{Mg}{2}, ion{Fe}{2}(UV)/ion{Fe}{2}(Opt1) and ion{Fe}{2}(UV)/ion{Fe}{2}(Opt2) emission ratios depend upon hydrogen density and ionizing flux in broad-line regions (BLRs) of quasars. Our calculations show that: 1) similar ion{Fe}{2}(UV)/ion{Mg}{2} ratios can exist over a wide range of physical conditions; 2) the ion{Fe}{2}(UV)/ion{Fe}{2}(Opt1) and ion{Fe}{2}(UV)/ion{Fe}{2}(Opt2) ratios serve to constrain ionizing luminosity and hydrogen density; and 3) flux measurements of ion{Fe}{2} bands and knowledge of ionizing flux provide tools to derive distances to BLRs in quasars. To derive all BLR physical parameters with uncertainties, comparisons of our model with observations of a large quasar sample at low redshift ($z<1$) is desirable. The STIS and NICMOS spectrographs aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) offer the best means to provide such observations.
Most ocean models in current use are built upon structured meshes. It follows that most existing tools for extracting diagnostic quantities (volume and surface integrals, for example) from ocean model output are constructed using techniques and softw
Both the Fe II UV emission in the 2000- 3000 A region [Fe II (UV)] and resonance emission line complex of Mg II at 2800 A are prominent features in quasar spectra. The observed Fe II UV/ Mg II emission ratios have been proposed as means to measure th
We present spectra of six luminous quasars at z ~ 2, covering rest wavelengths 1600-3200 A. The fluxes of the UV Fe II emission lines and Mg II 2798 doublet, the line widths of Mg II, and the 3000 A luminosity were obtained from the spectra. These qu
We have investigated the strength of ultraviolet Fe II emission from quasars within the environments of Large Quasar Groups (LQGs) in comparison with quasars elsewhere, for 1.1 <= <z_LQG> <= 1.7, using the DR7QSO catalogue of the Sloan Digital Sky Su
In this paper, beam diagnostic and monitoring tools developed by the MAX IV Operations Group are discussed. In particular, new beam position monitoring and accelerator tunes visualization software tools, as well as tools that directly influence the b
