Spectropolarimetry of low redshift Quasars: origin of the polarization and implications for black hole mass estimates

no code implementations11 Feb 2021 Alessandro Capetti, Ari Laor, Ranieri D. Baldi, Andrew Robinson, Alessandro Marconi

The observed line width is found to be affected by inclination, which can lead to an underestimate of the black hole mass by a factor of $\sim 5$ for a close-to face-on view.
