Abstract

This projects proposes a study about chemical abundances of heavy elements in Active Galaxy Nuclei (AGNs). Photoionization models will be build with the code Cloudy in order to reproduce observational intensities of narrow emission-lines of AGNs. This enables to investigate the chemical evolution and physical properties of AGNs in a large range of redshifts. (AU)
