A sample of radio-loud QSOs at redshift ~ 4
J. Holt, C. R. Benn, M. Vigotti +5
We obtained spectra of 60 red, starlike objects (E< 18.8) identified with FIRST radio sources, S_{1.4GHz} > 1 mJy. Eight are QSOs with redshift z> 3.6.Combined with our pilot searc…

The merging/AGN connection: A case for 3D spectroscopy
S. F. Sanchez, L. Christensen, T. Becker +5
We discuss an ongoing study of the connection between galaxy merging/interaction and AGN activity, based on integral field spectroscopy. We focus on the search for AGN ionization i…

Decline of the space density of quasars between z=2 and z=4
M. Vigotti, R. Carballo, C. R. Benn +5
We define a new complete sample of 13 optically-luminous radio quasars M_AB(1450 Angstrom) < -26.9 mag and log P_1.4 GHz(W/Hz) > 25.7 with redshift 3.8 < z < 4.5, obtained by cross…
