Reporting a Deficit of Intrinsic NV Absorbers in Core-dominated, Radio-loud Quasars
Chris Culliton, Amber Roberts, Bryan DeMarcy +5
We searched the Hubble Space Telescope Cosmic Origins Spectrograph archive for ultraviolet spectra of 428 AGN to identify intrinsic NV absorption systems. We filtered out Type 2 AG…
An Extremely-High Velocity Outflow in SMSS J2157-3602, the most luminous quasar in the first 1.3 Gyr
Giustina Vietri, Paola Rodriguez Hidalgo, Amy Rankine +16
We report the discovery of an extremely high-velocity outflow (EHVO) in the most luminous ( 2.29 10 erg/s) QSO, SMSS J2157-3602, at z=4.692. Comb…
The first direct imaging of the silhouette of a damped Lyman system along the line-of-sight to a background galaxy
Fuga Komori, Akio K. Inoue, Ken Mawatari +7
The H~{\sc i} gas distribution in damped Lyman absorbers (DLAs) has remained elusive due to the point-source nature of background quasar emission. Observing DLAs against spatia…
The possible long-term periodic variability of the extremely luminous quasar WISE J090924.01+000211.1
Takashi Horiuchi, Yoshiki Toba, Toru Misawa +11
The extremely luminous infrared galaxy (ELIRG), WISE J090924.01+000211.1 (hereafter; WISE J0909+0002, ) is an extraordinary object with a quasar aspect. This study performs…
