Chandra observations of 2106 radio-quiet QSOs
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present Chandra observations of 2106 radio-quiet quasars in the redshift range 1.7<=z<=2.7 from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), through data release fourteen (DR14, 2018ApJS..235...42A), that do not contain broad absorption lines (BAL) in their rest-frame UV spectra.
Description
This sample adds over a decade worth of SDSS and Chandra observations to our previously published sample of 139 quasars from SDSS DR5 which is still used to correlate X-ray and optical/UV emission in typical quasars.
We fit the SDSS spectra for 753 of the quasars in our sample that have high-quality (large exposure time and small off-axis observation angle) X-ray observations, and analyze their X-ray properties (aox and daox) with respect to the measured CIV and MgII emission-line rest-frame equivalent width (EW) and the CIV emission-line blueshift. We find significant correlations (at the >=99.99% level) between aox and these emission-line parameters, as well as between daox and CIV EW.

Slight correlations are found between daox and CIV blueshift, MgII EW, and the ratio of CIV EW to MgII EW. The best-fit trend in each parameter space is used to compare the X-ray weakness (daox) and optical/UV emission properties of typical quasars and weak-line quasars (WLQs). The WLQs clearly deviate from the expectation for every relationship, typically exhibiting much weaker X-ray emission than predicted by the typical quasar relationships.
The best-fit relationships for our typical quasars are consistent with predictions from the disk-wind quasar model. The behavior of the WLQs with respect to our typical quasars can be explained by an X-ray shielding model.
