Probing the time variability of five Fe low broad absorption-line quasars
We study the time variability of five Fe low-ionization broad absorption line (FeLoBAL) QSOs using repeated spectroscopic observations with the 2-m telescope at IUCAA Girawali Observatory (IGO) spanning an interval of up to 10 years. We report a dramatic variation in the Al III and Fe III fine-structure lines in the spectra of SDSS J221511.93−004549.9 (zem ∼ 1.478). However, there is no such st...
متن کاملDynamically evolving Mg II broad absorption line flow in SDSS
We report a dynamically evolving low-ionization broad absorption line (BAL) flow in the QSO SDSS J133356.02+001229.1 (at zem ∼ 0.9197). These observations are part of our ongoing monitoring of low-ionization BAL QSOs with the 2-m telescope at IUCAA Girawali Observatory (IGO). The broad Mg II absorption with an ejection velocity of 1.7 × 104 km s−1, found in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) s...
متن کاملThe Very Highly Ionized Broad Absorption Line System of the QSO SBS1542+541
We have analyzed the broad absorption line system of the bright (V ∼ 16.5) high-redshift (z = 2.361) QSO SBS1542+541 using UV spectra from the HST FOS along with optical data from the MMT and the Steward Observatory 2.3m telescope. These spectra offer continuous wavelength coverage from 1200 to 8000 Å, corresponding to ∼ 340− 2480 Å in the QSO rest frame. The line of sight to the object contain...
متن کاملLens-aided Multi-angle Spectroscopy (lamas) Reveals Small-scale Outflow Structure in Quasars
Spectral differences between lensed quasar image components are common. Since lensing is intrinsically achromatic, these differences are typically explained as the effect of either microlensing, or as light path time delays sampling intrinsic quasar spectral variability. Here we advance a novel third hypothesis: some spectral differences are due to small line-of-sight differences through quasar...
متن کاملOutflowing material in the z em = 4 . 92 BAL QSO SDSS J 160501 . 21 − 011220 . 0
We present the analysis of broad absorption lines (BALs) seen in the spectrum of the zem ≃4.92 QSO SDSS J160501.21-011220.0. Our high spectral resolution UVES spectrum shows two well detached absorption line systems at zabs= 4.685 and 4.855. The system at zabs= 4.855 covers the background source completely suggesting that the gas is located outside the broad emission line region. On the contrar...
