cds-question@unistra.frquasarsredshiftedStudies of radio-loud (RL) broad absorption line (BAL) quasars indicate that popular orientation-based BAL models fail to account for all observations. Are these results extendable to radio-quiet (RQ) BAL quasars? Comparisons of RL and RQ BAL quasars show that many of their properties are quite similar. Here, we extend these analyses to the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) spectral properties, using a sample of 73 RL and 473 RQ BAL quasars selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Each RQ quasar is individually matched to an RL quasar in both redshift (over the range 1.5<z<3.5) and continuum luminosity. We compare several continuum, emission line, and absorption line properties, as well as physical properties derived from these measurements. Most properties in the samples are statistically identical, though we find slight differences in the velocity structure of the BALs that cause apparent differences in C iv emission line properties. Differences in the velocities may indicate an interaction between the radio jets and the absorbing material. We also find that UV FeII emission is marginally stronger in RL BAL quasars. All of these differences are subtle, so in general we conclude that RL and RQ BAL QSOs are not fundamentally different objects, except in their radio properties. They are therefore likely to be driven by similar physical phenomena, suggesting that results from samples of RL BAL quasars can be extended to their RQ counterparts.2014MNRAS.444.2498Rhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/444/2498CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toII/276 : SDSS Photometric Catalog, Release 5 (Adelman-McCarthy+ 2007)J/ApJ/692/758 : BAL QSOs in SDSS-DR5 (Gibson+, 2009)J/MNRAS/427/1135 : Properties of radio-loud BAL quasars (DiPompeo+, 2012)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/444/2498https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/444/2498http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/444/2498https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/444/2498https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/444/2498http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/444/2498GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/444/2498/table1 (Radio-Quiet BAL quasars selected for the comparisons)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/444/2498/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/444/2498/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/444/2498/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true238.409255.23390.0055555555555555566/4115 4153 4167 4178-4179 4192 4199 4216 4224 4226 4231 4240 4354 4665 4754 4783 4788 4814 4831 4852 4927 4934 4953 4958-4959 4963 4971 4989 4991 5012 5018 5035 5055 5066 5075 5080 5090 5092 5117 5230 5239 5277 5285 5302 5318-5319 5327 5339 5352 5354 5360 5368 5384 5395 5399 5403 5422 5460 5483-5484 5488 5521 5602 5615 5648 5654 5688-5689 5712 5714 5729-5730 5752 5761 5764 5766 5768 5795 5798 5804 5831 5863 5886 5899 5914 5916 5923 5946 5955 5967 5991 6039 6041 6051 6062 6077 6081 6083 6085 6090 6093 6101 6123 6131-6132 6143 6215 6337 6341 6384 6401 6406 6422 6485 6502-6503 6517 6568 6571 6581 6596 6601 6618 7199 7235 7237 7246 7272 7277 7298 7311 7346 7365 7424-7425 7442 7447 7467 7482 7517 7525-7526 7553 8192 8199 8227 8365 8374 8376 8380 8416 8574 8737 8740 8831 9082 9085 9176 9232 9239 9281 9294 9322 9350 9357 9360 9374 9392 9397 9403 9422 9483 9646-9647 9733 9745-9746 9789 9802 9806 9814 9819 9825 9839 9851 9876 9893 9924 9948 9968 9982 9987 10019 10098 10190 10202 10220 10222 10302 10362 10393 10432-10433 10527 10540 10542 10544 10549 10555 10571 10592 10595 10636 10663 10677 10698 10714 10716-10717 10739 10792-10793 10931 10951 11016 11047 11069 11076 11079 11086 11097 11110 11113 11116 11120 11126 11134 11147 11194 11199 11241 11272 11290 11323 11347 11351 11400 11404 11423 11426 11428 11439 11445 11456 11502 11588 11597 11801 11804 11807 11850 11874 11930 11948 12382 12394 12481 17328 17405 17407 17512 17518 17556 17578 17581 17668 17672 17727 17743 17747 17752-17753 17756 17763 17766 17772 17774 17807 17816 17836 17841 17857 17997 18004 18012-18013 18067 18076 18085 18087 18089 18092 18395 18404 18582 18626-18627 18632 18690 18749 18773 18785 18787-18788 18802 18835 18851 18856 18858 19005-19006 19025 19094 19111 19118 19120 19420 19686 19696 19760 19840 20096 21965 23055 23058 23102 23147 23192-23193 25599 25917 25930 25939 25944 25952 25968 26010 26012 26055 26058 26062 26067 26071 26085 26105-26106 26183 26204 26206 26212 26223 26238 26258 26268 26270 26278 26301 26305 26325 26336 26351 26394 26402 26416 26490 26527 26594 26949 26967 26992 27025 27038 27052 27059 27100 27116 27119 27127 27130 27199 27241 27303 27321 27327 27337 27344 27354 27361 27370 27376 27380 27398 27458 27475 27484 27501 27517 27524 27526 27537 27571 27593 27674-27675 27697 27734 27760 27793 27796 27798 27804 27830 27872 27878 28036 28168 28180 28195 28197 28587 28591 28600 28614 28617 28622 28637 28659 31345 31353 31358 31376 31435 31441 31456 31473 31490 31631 32411-32412 32439 32480 32491 32497 32511 36728 36778 36812 36816 49010 49123-49124 49129https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/444/2498?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/MNRAS/444/2498/table1Radio-Quiet BAL quasars selected for the comparisonsSimbadNameSimbad column added by the CDSmeta.idcharrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
