Attention is given to the discovery of two narrow variable lines (L1 and L2) in the ultraviolet spectrum of NGC 4151. Li and L2 have a full width at half maximum of less than 7 and 16 A respectively, and vary in intensity by a factor of 3 in less than 10 days; they appear on either side of the C IV 1550 A line at lambda (rest) = 1518.5 and 1594.4 A. It is suggested that the regions emitting L1 and L2 are associated with a two-sided jet reminiscent of SS 433.

Abstract
Attention is given to the discovery of two narrow variable lines (L1 and L2) in the ultraviolet spectrum of NGC 4151. Li and L2 have a full width at half maximum of less than 7 and 16 A respectively, and vary in intensity by a factor of 3 in less than 10 days; they appear on either side of the C IV 1550 A line at lambda (rest) = 1518.5 and 1594.4 A. It is suggested that the regions emitting L1 and L2 are associated with a two-sided jet reminiscent of SS 433.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
