THE optical spectra of QSOs exhibit very broad high-excitation emission lines. The broadest of these in the visible region for typical redshifts are the resonance lines Lyα λ1216, CIV λ1550 and MgII λ2798 (ref. 1). Previous suggestions for the origin of the breadth of these lines include electron scattering and Doppler shifts due to turbulence or other mass motions in clouds of gas.
