Abstract (from CDS):

We report an active galactic nucleus (AGN) with an extremely high equivalent width (EW), EW_Lyα+N V,rest_ ≳921 Å, in the rest frame, at z ∼ 2.24 in the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment Survey (HETDEX), as a representative case of the high-EW AGN population. The continuum level is a nondetection in the HETDEX spectrum; thus the measured EW is a lower limit. The source is detected with significant emission lines (>7σ) at Lyα + N Vλ1241, C IVλ1549, and a moderate emission line (∼4σ) at He IIλ1640 within the wavelength coverage of HETDEX (3500-5500 Å). The r-band magnitude is 24.57 from the Hyper Suprime-Cam-HETDEX joint survey with a detection limit of r = 25.12 at 5σ. The Lyα emission line spans a clearly resolved region of ∼10″ (85 kpc) in diameter. The Lyα line profile is strongly double peaked. The spectral decomposed blue gas and red gas Lyα emission are separated by ∼1.″2 (10.1 kpc) with a line-of-sight velocity offset of ∼1100 km s–1. This source is probably an obscured AGN with powerful winds.
