The behavior of quasar C IV emission-line properties with orientation
Jessie C. Runnoe, M. S. Brotherton, M. A. DiPompeo +1
With a quasar sample designed for studying orientation effects, we investigate the orientation dependence of characteristics of the C IV 1549 broad emission line in approximately 5…
The X-ray Spectrum and Spectral Energy Distribution of FIRST J155633.8+351758: a LoBAL Quasar with a Probable Polar Outflow
Robert C. Berrington, Michael S. Brotherton, Sarah C. Gallagher +8
We report the results of a new 60 ks Chandra X-ray Observatory Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer S-array (ACIS-S) observation of the reddened, radio-selected, highly polarized `FeL…
Does Size Matter? The Underlying Intrinsic Size Distribution of Radio Sources and Implications for Unification by Orientation
Michael A. DiPompeo, Jessie C. Runnoe, Adam D. Myers +1
Unification by orientation is a ubiquitous concept in the study of active galactic nuclei. A gold standard of the orientation paradigm is the hypothesis that radio galaxies and rad…
Rehabilitating CIV-based black hole mass estimates in quasars
J. C. Runnoe, M. S. Brotherton, Zhaohui Shang +1
Currently, the ability to produce black hole mass estimates using the CIV 1549 line that are consistent with Hb mass estimates is uncertain, due in large part to disagreement betwe…
Rest-frame optical properties of luminous, radio-selected, broad absorption line quasars
J. C. Runnoe, R. Ganguly, M. S. Brotherton +1
We have obtained IRTF/SpeX spectra of eight moderate-redshift (z=0.7-2.4), radio-selected (log R*~0.4-1.9) broad absorption line (BAL) quasars. The spectra cover the rest-frame opt…
