New Quasars Detected via Variability in the QUEST1 Survey
A. W. Rengstorf, S. L. Mufson, C. Abad +31
By observing the high galactic latitude equatorial sky in drift scan mode with the QUEST (QUasar Equatorial Survey Team) Phase 1 camera, multi-bandpass photometry on a large strip…
Reddening-Independent Quasar Selection from a Wide-Field Optical and Near-IR Imaging Survey
R. G. Sharp, C. N. Sabbey, A. K. Vivas +4
We combine deep, wide-field near-IR and optical imaging to demonstrate a reddening-independent quasar selection technique based on identifying outliers in the (g-z) / (z-H) colour…
A Large Area CCD Camera for the Schmidt Telescope at the Venezuelan National Astronomical Observatory
C. Baltay, J. A. Snyder, P. Andrews +25
We have designed, constructed and put into operation a large area CCD camera that covers a large fraction of the image plane of the 1 meter Schmidt telescope at Llano del Hato in V…
The Las Campanas IR Survey. II. Photometric redshifts, comparison with models and clustering evolution
A. E. Firth, R. S. Somerville, R. G. McMahon +15
The LCIR Survey, using the Cambridge IR Survey Instrument (CIRSI), reaches H \~ 20-21 over ~1 deg^2. We present results for 744 arcmin^2 in which public UBVRI data exist. We compar…
The Las Campanas Infrared Survey. III. The H-band Imaging Survey and the Near-Infrared and Optical Photometric Catalogs
Hsiao-Wen Chen, P. J. McCarthy, R. O. Marzke +16
(Abridged) The Las Campanas Infrared Survey, based on broad-band optical and near-infrared photometry, is designed to robustly identify a statistically significant and representati…
Infrared Imaging Data Reduction Software and Techniques
Chris N. Sabbey, Richard G. McMahon, James R. Lewis +1
We describe the InfraRed Data Reduction (IRDR) software package, a small ANSI C library of fast image processing routines for automated pipeline reduction of infrared (dithered) ob…
