We study the maser emission arising from a thin, planar, gaseous ring in Keplerian rotation around a central mass when it is observed edge-on. Assuming that the absorption coefficient within the amplifying ring is a decreasing function of distance from the central mass (i.e., κ = κ0r-q), we calculated position-velocity (PV) diagrams for the most intense maser features using different values of the exponent q. We found that, depending on the value of q, these diagrams can be qualitatively different.
