AGN Broad Line Region Variability in the Context of Eigenvector 1: Case of NGC 5548

AGN Broad Line Region Variability in the Context of Eigenvector 1: Case of NGC 5548

Many active galactic nuclei (AGN) show strong variability of the optical continuum. Since the line flux, profile shapes and intensity ratios are changing, we analyze the variability patterns and possible periodicity of Type 1 AGN NGC 5548, using the Eigenvector 1 (EV1) diagram in different variabili...
