| Abstract: |
We have studied the connection between black hole masses and
jet parameters (Doppler and Lorentz factors and viewing angle) in a
sample of radio-bright flat spectrum radio quasars. Our preliminary
results show a negative correlation between the black hole mass and
the viewing angle, which could indicate a wind-like component in the
broad line region of these sources. In contrast to previous findings,
we do not find strong correlation between the Doppler boosting factors
or Lorentz factors and the black hole masses. |
