dc.descriptionWe discuss the identification and kinematics of intrinsic narrow-line absorbers in three QSOs. The line-of-sight ejection velocities in the confirmed intrinsic systems range from 1500 to 51,000 km/s. The ratio of ejection velocity to line width, V/Delta-V, in these systems ranges from ~3 to 60, in marked contrast to the BALs where typically V/Delta-V ~ 1. We speculate on the possible relationship between the BAL and narrow-line absorbers. Like the BALs, intrinsic narrow-line systems appear to be rare, but the outflows that cause them might be common if they cover a small fraction of the sky as seen from the QSO.
