High-Redshift Quasars Found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Commissioning Data V. Hobby-Eberly Telescope Observations
Donald P. Schneider, Xiaohui Fan, Michael A. Strauss +5
We report the discovery of 27 quasars with redshifts between 3.58 and 4.49. The objects were identified as high-redshift candidates based on their colors in Sloan Digital Sky Surve…
Is There Still Room for Warm/Hot Gas? Simulating the X-ray Background Spectrum
L. A. Phillips, J. P. Ostriker, R. Cen
At low redshifts, a census of the baryons in all known reservoirs falls a factor of two to four below the total baryon density predicted from Big Bang nucleosynthesis arguments and…
High-Redshift Quasars Found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Commissioning Data IV: Luminosity Function from the Fall Equatorial Stripe Sampl
X. Fan, M. A. Strauss, D. P. Schneider +7
This is the fourth paper in a series aimed at finding high-redshift quasars from five-color imaging data taken along the Celestial Equator by the SDSS. during its commissioning pha…
High-Redshift Quasars Found in Sloan Digital Sky Survey Commissioning Data III: A Color Selected Sample at i^*<20 in the Fall Equatorial Stripe
X. Fan, M. A. Strauss, G. T. Richards +7
This is the third paper in a series aimed at finding high-redshift quasars from five-color (u'g'r'i'z') imaging data taken along the Celestial Equator by the SDSS during its commis…
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey: Technical Summary
D. G. York
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) will provide the data to support detailed investigations of the distribution of luminous and non- luminous matter in the Universe: a photometric…
Properties of Cosmic Shock Waves in Large Scale Structure Formation
Francesco Miniati, Dongsu Ryu, Hyesung Kang +3
We have examined the properties of shock waves in simulations of large scale structure formation for two cosmological scenarios (a SCDM and a LCDM with Omega =1). Large-scale shock…
