On the incidence of weak and strong Mg II absorbers towards the Flat and Steep Spectrum Radio quasars
Ritish Kumar, Sapna Mishra, Hum Chand
The incidence rate of Mg II absorbers per unit redshift path (dN/dz) towards quasar sightlines has been used to probe the interaction between quasar jets and surrounding gas clouds…

Circumgalactic medium of quasar host galaxies at 0.4<z<0.8 probed by strong Mg II absorption
Paryag Sharma, Raghunathan Srianand, Hum Chand +1
Using a sample of 166 projected quasar pairs we investigate the influence of active galactic nuclei on the circumgalactic medium (CGM) of the quasar host galaxies probed using stro…
