First Direct Evidence for Keplerian Rotation in Quasar Inner Broad-line Regions

First Direct Evidence for Keplerian Rotation in Quasar Inner Broad-line Regions

We introduce a novel method to derive rotation curves with light-day spatial resolution of the inner regions of lensed quasars. We aim to probe the kinematics of the inner part of the broad-line region by resolving the microlensing response—a proxy for the size of the emitting region—in the wings of...
