Properties of X-ray-selected broad absorption-line quasars

Broad absorption-line quasars (commonly termed BALQSOs) contain the most dramatic examples of active galactic nucleus (AGN) driven winds. The high absorbing columns in these winds, ~1024 cm-2, ensure that BALQSOs are generally X-ray faint. This high X-ray absorption means that almost all BALQSOs hav...
