A Balmer-line Broad Absorption Line Quasar
I report the discovery of blueshifted broad absorption line (BAL) troughs in at least six transitions of the Balmer series of hydrogen (Hβ to H9) and in Ca II, Mg II and excited Fe II in the quasar SDSS J125942.80+121312.6. This is only the fourth active galactic nucleus known to exhibit Balmer absorption, all four in conjunction with low-ionization BAL systems containing excited Fe II. The sub...
متن کاملDiscovery of Newly Formed Broad Absorption Lines in a Radio-Loud Quasar
We report a serendipitous discovery of broad absorption lines that were newly formed in the spectrum of the high-redshift, luminous radio-loud quasar TEX 1726+344, in a time interval of only 12 years. This is the first quasar showing a transition from narrow absorption lines to broad absorption lines. It also becomes one of the few radio-loud broad absorption line quasars. The gas cloud respons...
متن کاملHow Saturated Are Absorption Lines in the Broad Absorption Line Quasar Pg 1411+442 ?
Recently, convincing evidence was found for extremely large X-ray absorption by column densities > 1023 cm−2 in broad absorption line quasars. One consequence of this is that any soft X-ray emission from these QSOs would be the scattered light or leaked light from partially covering absorbing material. A detection of the unabsorbed soft X-ray and absorbed hard X-ray component will allow to dete...

متن کاملQuasar Absorption Lines as a Function of Quasar Orientation Measures
We present high resolution radio data at 3.5 and 20 cm from the VLA in the A configuration for 144 quasars with known C IV absorption line properties. Using these measurements, we compare and contrast a number of quasar orientation indicators. These quantities are used to study the velocity distribution of C IV absorption lines as a function of quasar orientation measures. That there is an exce...
