| contents | We present the results from a 3-year-long Ultraviolet monitoring campaign of the broad line Seyfert 1 galaxy ESO 141-G55 using International Ultraviolet Explorer (IUE). By modelling all individual, extinction-corrected UV spectra in 1150-1978 A and 1850-3348 A wavelength range, we have observed a significant variability in both UV continuum and line fluxes. Variabilities due to ionised UV lines like SiIV, CIV and HeII are delayed with respect to the UV continuum by 2.92$^{+0.54}_{-0.61}$, 4.41$^{+0.44}_{-0.54}$, 4.11$^{+0.35}_{-0.81}$ days, respectively. At a distance of $\sim$0.004c, an outer accretion disc can be a possible site for the origin of UV lines. |
