In this article, we study the variability of Si iv and C iv broad absorption lines (BALs) between two different epochs in the case of 10 broad absorption-line quasi-stellar objects (BALQSOs). By performing multicomponent analysis of Si iv and C iv broad absorption troughs, we analyse each BAL trough to find the individual and uniquely determined nu...
ASTA is a new spectral analysis software aiming to serve the growing need of an integrated computing environment which will implement efficiently the demanding process of multicomponent analysis. It is a cutting-edge spectral multicomponent analysis software for displaying, fitting and analyzing astronomical spectra of complex emission and absorpti...
In this paper we analyze the C IV and Si IV broad absorption troughs of two BALQSOs (J101056.69+355833.3, J114548.38+393746.6) to the individual components they consist of. By analyzing a BAL trough to its components we have the advantage to study the variations of the individual absorbing systems in the line of sight and not just the variations of...
Broad Absorption Line QSOs (BALQSOs) are a subtype of radio-quite QSOs that exhibit complex and unusually broad (FWHM ≥ 2,000 km/s) absorption lines. The existence of these lines in BALQSO spectra raises some questions with respect to the properties, the physical conditions and kinematics of the BAL material as well as the morphology of BAL troughs...

We investigate the physical conditions and kinematics of broad absorption line region clouds of Si IV in 21 HiBAL Quasars. We use the Danezis et al. method [1], [2], [3] in order to fit and analyze the broad absorption troughs of Si IV resonance lines in the UV region of the electromagnetic spectrum. We find that the BAL flow is not smooth but inst...
Here we consider the presence of absorption components shifted to the violet or red side of the main spectral line (satellite
or discrete absorption components, i.e., SACs or DACs) in the regions of the Mg II resonance lines in Be stars as well as
their kinematical characteristics. Namely, our objective is to check whether there exists a common phy...

Most of the Broad Absorption Lines (BALs) in quasars show very complex profiles. An idea to explain these profiles is that the dynamical systems of broad line regions are not homogeneous but consist of a number of dense regions or ion populations with different physical parameters. This approach is used to study the ultraviolet CIV resonance lines...

Most of Broad Absorption Lines (BALs) in quasars (QSOs) present very complex profiles. This means that we cannot fit them with a known physical distribution.

Hot emission stars (Oe and Be stars) present complex spectral line profiles, which are formed by a number of DACs and/or SACs. In order to explain and reproduce theoretically these complex line profiles we use the GR model (Gauss-Rotation model). This model presupposes that the regions, where the spectral lines are created, consist of a number of i...
Some Hot Emission Stars and AGNs present peculiar spectral line profiles which are due to DACs and SACs phenomena. The origin and the mechanisms which are responsible for the creation of DACs/SACs is an important problem that has been studied by many researchers. This paper is a review of our efforts to study the origin and the mechanisms of these...
We use the GR model in order to fit broad spectral lines (absorption and emission) of several BAL QSOs. According to this motdel, we assume that the Broad Line Regions (BLR), which originate in a disk wind, are composed of a number of successive independent absorbing density layers, which may have different random, rotational and radial velocities....
Assuming that the Broad Absorption Line Region – BALR (originated in a disk wind) is composed of a number of successive independent absorbing density layers, which have apparent rotational and radial velocities and where ions have random velocities, we applied a model in order to obtain the kinematical parameters of BALR, by fitting the broad absor...

Introduction: As it is already known, the spectra of many Oe and Be
stars present Discrete Absorption Components (DACs) which, due to their
profiles' width as well as the values of the radial velocities, create a
complicated profile of the main spectral lines (Bates & Halliwell,
1986). In this poster paper we detect the presence of this phenomenon...

In some cases, the UV spectral lines of hot emission stars and quasars have very large widths that can not be explained as the consequence of rotational or random velocities. In this paper we present a new idea to explain this phenomenon.

Some spectra of AGN present peculiar line profiles, resulting from dynamical processes such as accretion to and∕or ejection of matter from the central source. In this paper we explore the idea that Discrete or Satellite Absorption Compoments (DASs∕SACs, respectively) might be responsible for the absorption line peculiarities in at least some AGN. W...

We examine the timescale changes of C IV, N IV and N V spectral lines of the Oe star HD 93521, during a period of 16 years, applying the model proposed by Danezis et al. (2005). We found that the spectral lines consist of one or more Satellite Absorption Components (SACs or DACs) which construct the whole spectral profile. In this paper we present...
In the spectra of Oe and Be stars, many spectral
lines present peculiar and complex profiles due to the fact that the observed absorption features are composed of two or more absorption components (Discrete or Satellite Absorption Components—DACs/SACs). Here we detected the presence the SACs phenomenon in the C IV, N IV and N V spectral
lines in...
In order to analyse the stellar spectra we use the Gauss-Rotation method and we conclude that the SACs/DACs phenomena are able to explain, in a unique way, the complex and peculiar observed profiles. These results arise from the study of the Mg II (lambdalambda 2795.523, 2802.698 Å), SiIV (lambdalambda 1393.755, 1402.77 Å), and Halpha (lambda 6562,...

In the spectra
of many Oe and Be stars we observe complex profiles in the lines
of many ions. The observed features are the composition of a number of
