Spectroscopic confirmation of dual and offset quasars from the Subaru HSC-SSP program
Shenli Tang, John Silverman, Xavier Prochaska +4
We present a spectroscopic follow-up program targeting closely-separated dual quasar candidates selected from imaging of SDSS quasars with the Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strat…
The rest ultraviolet to infrared spectral energy distributions of heavily reddened quasars are "V-shaped" and hot-dust poor
Matthew Stepney, Manda Banerji, Shenli Tang +2
We present a rest-ultraviolet to infrared spectral energy distribution (SED) analysis of 63 heavily reddened quasars (HRQs) at redshifts z=0.7-2.7 and with dust extinctions E(B-V)=…
HST Confirms Sub-5 kpc Dual Quasar Pairs at Cosmic Noon
Qian Wang, Xuheng Ding, John Silverman +12
During cosmic noon (), when both star formation and black hole growth peaked, galaxy mergers are predicted to trigger dual active galactic nuclei (AGN) that eventually co…
The Physical Origin of Extreme Emission Line Galaxies at High redshifts: Strong {\sc [Oiii]} Emission Lines Produced by Obscured AGNs
Chenghao Zhu, Yuichi Harikane, Masami Ouchi +21
We present deep Subaru/FOCAS spectra for two extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs) at with strong {\sc[Oiii]}5007 emission lines, exhibiting equivalent widths (EWs) o…
A Big Red Dot: Scattered light, host galaxy signatures and multi-phase gas flows in a luminous, heavily reddened quasar at cosmic noon
Matthew Stepney, Manda Banerji, Shenli Tang +5
We present a deep X-Shooter rest-frame UV to optical spectral analysis of the heavily reddened quasar, ULASJ2315+043 at z=2.566, known to reside in a major-merger host galaxy. The…
Rich and diverse molecular gas environments of closely-separated dual quasars viewed by ALMA
Shenli Tang, John D. Silverman, Zhaoxuan Liu +12
We present a study of the molecular gas in five closely-spaced ( kpc) dual quasars () at redshifts with the…
IllustrisTNG in the HSC-SSP: image data release and the major role of mini mergers as drivers of asymmetry and star formation
Connor Bottrell, Hassen M. Yesuf, Gergö Popping +13
At fixed galaxy stellar mass, there is a clear observational connection between structural asymmetry and offset from the star forming main sequence, SFMS. Herein, we use the TNG…
Morphological asymmetries of quasar host galaxies with Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam
Shenli Tang, John D. Silverman, Hassen M. Yesuf +7
How does the host galaxy morphology influence a central quasar or vice versa? We address this question by measuring the asymmetries of 2424 SDSS quasar hosts at using b…
Deciphering the extreme X-ray variability of the nuclear transient eRASSt J045650.3-203750: A likely repeating partial tidal disruption event
Zhu Liu, A. Malyali, M. Krumpe +17
(Abridged) In this paper, we present the results of an exceptional repeating X-ray nuclear transient, eRASSt J045650.3-203750 (hereafter J0456-20), uncovered by SRG/eROSITA in a qu…
Third Data Release of the Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program
Hiroaki Aihara, Yusra AlSayyad, Makoto Ando +64
The paper presents the third data release of Hyper Suprime-Cam Subaru Strategic Program (HSC-SSP), a wide-field multi-band imaging survey with the Subaru 8.2m telescope. HSC-SSP ha…
Optical Spectroscopy of Dual Quasar Candidates from the Subaru HSC-SSP program
Shenli Tang, John D. Silverman, Xuheng Ding +30
We report on a spectroscopic program to search for dual quasars using Subaru Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) images of SDSS quasars which represent an important stage during galaxy mergers…

John D. Silverman, Shenli Tang, Khee-Gan Lee +30
The unique combination of superb spatial resolution, wide-area coverage, and deep depth of the optical imaging from the Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Subaru Strategic Program is utilized…
