Size and kinematics of the low-ionization broad emission line region from microlensing-induced line profile distortions in gravitationally lensed quasars
Damien Hutsemékers, Dominique Sluse, ÄorÄe SaviÄ
MgII or H line profile distortions observed in five gravitationally lensed quasars have been compared with simulated ones. The simulations are based on three BLR models, a Kepl…

Size and kinematics of the CIV broad emission line region from microlensing-induced line profile distortions in two gravitationally lensed quasars
Damien Hutsemékers, Dominique Sluse, ÄorÄe SaviÄ
We analyzed the CIV line profile distortions due to microlensing in two quasars, J1339 and J1138. J1339 shows a strong, asymmetric line profile deformation, while J1138 shows a mor…

Probing the broad line region geometry and size of the gravitationally lensed quasar Q2237+0305 with microlensing time series
Ä. V. SaviÄ, D. Hutsemékers, D. Sluse
Lensed quasars are powerful cosmic laboratories; they are used to simultaneously probe various astrophysical phenomena. Microlensing by stars within distant galaxies acts as strong…
