Abstract (from CDS):

Highly accreting quasars show fairly distinctive properties in their optical, UV, and X spectra, and are easy to recognize because of their specific location in the quasar main sequence: they are the strongest optical FeII emitters. They show a surprisingly high rate of radio detections and, at variance with the classical radio-loud (jetted) sources, the origin of their radio emission is probably “thermal.” The chemical composition of the broad line emitting gas implies high metallicity values, above 10 times solar. A fraction of highly accreting quasars at intermediate and high redshift might therefore be in a particular evolutionary stage that is unobscured albeit still involving a contribution of nuclear and circum-nuclear star formation in their multifrequency properties.
