Magnified Views of Relativistic Outflows in 1.4 < z < 2.6 mini-BAL Quasars
收藏资源简介:
We propose to observe four Xray bright gravitationally lensed miniBAL quasars.The main scientific goals are to\\: (a) Investigate whether relativistic outflowsare a common property of miniBAL quasars and highz quasars in general, (b)constrain the properties of the outflows. These constraints will improve ourunderstanding of the significance of such outflows in regulating black holegrowth and in influencing structure formation, and (c) test whether the outflowproperties of the Xray absorbers correlate with Xray and UV spectralproperties of the driving force. This test will provide insight into thelaunching mechanism of quasar outflows and indicate whether an Xrayabsorber/shield is required to drive Xray outflows. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
