THE ADVENTURES OF BEV ACROSS THE BROAD LINE REGION
A TALE OF FOUR DECADES

1971-1980The era of detailed spectroscopy
Also: The era of radio surveys

1981-1990The era of BLR models
Also: The era of FeII lines
Also: The era of AGN unification
Also: the era of accretion disks
Kishimoto – unification under the microscopeElvis – it is raining in Austin in SeptemberGaskel l– the BLR is really very simple Ward – SEDs everywhereShen – it is all about orientationElitzur – the world is made of clumps
KÖnigl and Kartje 1994
Runnoe – the way reak science is done

Life could be so simple without iron lines
FeII lines can drive me mad (Hagai and Bev 1983)FeII lines drive us mad too (Gary Jack and Kirk 2004)FeII lines are so simple (Fred 2014)

Power-law everywhere
What is the canonical SED?
What about accretion disks?

1991-2000The era of reverberation mapping
BL clouds now working for a bigger purpose
Also: the era of HST observations
Also: The era of polarimetry
Talks: Horne, Peterson, Pancoast – new RMLira – new polarization

2011-???Back to the roots
Revisiting BLR physics
Revisiting accretion disks
Revisiting dust in AGNs
Revisiting the unified model of AGNs
Talks:Laor – the nature of BLR clouds Risaliti – I can actually see them movingCzerny – BLR clouds are dust is in the airFerland – coronal lines from a dusty torus

??? in 2014 but !!! In 2020
Unification – does it work for all AGNs?
Merger or not a merger
What is the physical origin of EV1?
Very weak emission lines
Any relation to “real type-II AGNs” (torus does not disappear)
What is the role of slim accretion disks?
80% of all accretion disks at z>1.5 are slim
Can we see the other side of the BLR?
