First Observation of a Double-peaked O i Emission in the Near-infrared Spectrum of an Active Galaxy
Double-peaked profiles associated with the broad-line region (BLR) of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are regarded as the clearest evidence of the presence of an accretion disk. They are most commonly detected by means of optical spectroscopy in the Balmer lines and in the Mg ii λ 2798 ultraviolet lin...
