Detecting cold gas at intermediate redshifts: GMRT survey using Mg II systems

Neeraj Gupta, R. Srianand, P. Petitjean +3

Intervening HI 21-cm absorption systems at z > 1.0 are very rare and only 4 confirmed detections have been reported in the literature. Despite their scarcity, they provide interest…

Broad Absorption Line Variability in Repeat Quasar Observations from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Britt F. Lundgren, Brian C. Wilhite, Robert J. Brunner +5

We present a time-variability analysis of 29 broad absorption line quasars (BALQSOs) observed in two epochs by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). These spectra are selected from…

A Large, Uniform Sample of X-ray Emitting AGN from the ROSAT All-Sky and Sloan Digital Sky Surveys: the Data Release 5 Sample

Scott F. Anderson, Bruce Margon, Wolfgang Voges +16

We describe further results of a program aimed to yield ~10^4 fully characterized optical identifications of ROSAT X-ray sources. Our program employs X-ray data from the ROSAT All-…
