Photoionized O vi absorbers toward the bright QSO HE 0515 – 4414 ⋆
We report on detailed Monte Carlo inversion analysis of five Ovi systems from the spectrum of the bright quasar HE 0515–4414 (zem = 1.71). The associated system at zabs = 1.697 with the neutral hydrogen column density N(H i) = 4.4×10 cm shows pronounced absorption from highly ionized transitions of C iii, C iv, Nv, Ovi, Si iv, and probably Svi. We found that only a power law type ionizing spect...
متن کاملBroadening of QSO Lyα forest absorbers
We investigate the dependence of QSO Lyα absorption features on the temperature of the absorbing gas and on the amplitude of the underlying dark matter fluctuations. We use high-resolution hydrodynamic simulations in cold dark matter dominated cosmological models. In models with a hotter intergalactic medium (IGM), the increased temperature enhances the pressure gradients between low and high d...
متن کاملOn metal abundances in QSO absorbers
I review our recent results concerning the metal abundances in quasar absorption-line spectra obtained with the UVES/VLT, HIRES/ KECK, and STIS/HST spectrographs. The analysis is based on the Monte Carlo inversion procedure aimed at the restoring the physical parameters and the 1D distributions of the velocity and density fields in quasar absorbers. A functional dependence of the line-of-sight ...
متن کاملHE 0141 – 3932 : a bright QSO with an unusual emission line spectrum and associated absorption ⋆
HE 0141–3932 (zem = 1.80) is a bright blue radio-quite quasar with an unusually weak Lyα emission line. Large redshift differences (∆z = 0.05) are observed between high ionization and low ionization emission lines. Absorption systems identified at z abs = 1.78, 1.71, and 1.68 show mild oversolar metallicities (Z ≈ 1 − 2Z⊙) and can be attributed to the associated gas clouds ejected from the circ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Low Z Absorbers in the Qso Spectra
Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We present the results of reanalysis of low redshift Mg II absorption line sample compiled by Steidel and Sargent. We constructed grids of photoionization models for various cloud parameters. The conditions on cloud parameters to produce N(Fe II)≥N(Mg II) are obtained using single cloud curve of growth. Properties of Mg II absorbers with W(Fe II)/W(Mg II)(defi...
