Polar Outflows in Six Broad Absorption Line Quasars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2006
Using the radio observations by FIRST and NVSS, we build a sample of 151 radio variable quasars selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 3 (SDSS DR3). Six (probably another two) among them are classified as broad absorption line (BAL) quasars, with radio flux variations of a few 10 percent within 1.5-5 years. Such large amplitudes of the

Simultaneous Existence of the Line-locking and Velocity Shift Signatures in Quasar SDSS J004613.54+010425.7

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
This study presents a detailed investigation of the broad absorption line (BAL) systems in the quasar SDSS J004613.54+010425.7 (hereafter J0046+0104), which makes characters of the simultaneous existence of line-locking and velocity shift signatures ...

Accurate spectroscopic redshift of the multiply lensed quasar PSOJ0147 from the Pan-STARRS survey

open access: yes, 2017
Context: The gravitational lensing time delay method provides a one-step determination of the Hubble constant (H0) with an uncertainty level on par with the cosmic distance ladder method.

Discovery of Broad Soft X-ray Absorption Lines from the Quasar Wind in PDS 456 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
High resolution soft X-ray spectroscopy of the prototype accretion disk wind quasar, PDS 456, is presented. Here, the XMM-Newton RGS spectra are analyzed from the large 2013-2014 XMM-Newton campaign, consisting of 5 observations of approximately 100 ks ...

Coordinated Velocity Shift of Multiple C iv and Si iv Broad Absorption Lines in Quasar SDSS J113048.45+225206.6

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present an analysis of the coordinated velocity shifts observed in multiple C iv and Si iv broad absorption lines (BALs) in the quasar SDSS J113048.45+225206.6.

Reacceleration of a C iv Broad Absorption Line in Quasar SDSS J083817.00+295526.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a rare signature of reacceleration in a C iv broad absorption line (BAL) of the quasar SDSS J083817.00+295526.5. This quasar showcases three distinct BAL systems, labeled as systems A, B, and C.

Submillimeter Observations of a Sample of Broad Absorption Line Quasars [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2003
The broad absorption line (BAL) features seen in a small fraction of quasar optical/UV spectra are attributed to bulk outflows away from the quasar core. Observational evidence suggests that dust plays a key role in these systems, although whether the inferred dust properties are a signature of orientation effects or whether they are indicative of an ...
