Elliptical BLR geometries cause the virial factor f to vary by over an order of magnitude and induce ~0.18 dex scatter in the R-L relation, challenging attributions of RM uncertainties to non-virial motions or radiation pressure.

Dynamical modeling of BLRs in high-mass AGNs yields average virial factors of log10(f) = 0.69 ± 0.21 (using rms line width) and -0.08 ± 0.23 (using mean FWHM) from a combined sample of 38 objects, extending constraints to the 10^8–10^8.5 solar mass range.
