Abstract
We find that the profile changes observed for the UV emission lines Lα,CIV λ1549, and MgIII λ2798, in the Seyfert 1 galaxy Fairall 9 occur mainly near the line centre for Lα andCIV and in the wings for MgIII. These results indicate that the broad line region (BLR) has a complex structure, possibly with non-spherical components.
