Shedding New Light on Weak Emission-Line Quasars in the CIV-Hβ Parameter Space (open access)

Shedding New Light on Weak Emission-Line Quasars in the CIV-Hβ Parameter Space

Article describes how weak emission-line quasars (WLQs) are a subset of Type 1 quasars that exhibit extremely weak Lyα+N V λ1240 and/or C IV λ1549 emission lines. The authors investigate the relationship between emission-line properties and accretion rate for a sample of 230 `ordinary' Type 1 quasars and 18 WLQs at z<0.5 and 1.5<z<3.5 that have rest-frame ultraviolet and optical spectral measurements.
