A first look at cataclysmic variable stars from the 2dF QSO survey
T. R. Marsh, L. Morales-Rueda, D. Steeghs +9
The 2dF QSO survey is a spectroscopic survey of 48,000 point-sources selected by colour with magnitudes in the range 18.35 < B < 20.95. Amongst QSOs, white dwarfs, narrow-line gala…
2dF QSO Redshift Survey
T. Shanks, B. J. Boyle, S. M. Croom +3
With approximately 6000 QSO redshifts,the 2dF QSO redshift survey is already the biggest complete QSO survey. The aim for the survey is to have 25000 QSO redshifts, providing an or…
The 2dF QSO Redshift Survey
S. M. Croom, T. Shanks, B. J. Boyle +3
We present preliminary results from the 2-degree Field (2dF) QSO Redshift Survey currently under way at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. This survey aims to determine the redshifts…
The Type Ia Supernova Rate at z ~ 0.4
R. Pain, I. Hook, S. Perlmutter +23
We present the first measurement of the rate of Type Ia supernovae at high redshift. The result is derived using a large subset of data from the Supernova Cosmology Project as desc…
The discovery of a high redshift type 2 QSO
O. Almaini, B. J. Boyle, R. E. Griffiths +3
We report the discovery of a high redshift, narrow emission-line galaxy identified in the optical follow-up of deep ROSAT fields. The object has a redshift of z=2.35 and its narrow…
