Emergence and Variability of Broad Absorption Line Quasar Outflows

Jesse A. Rogerson, Patrick B. Hall, Nabeel S. Ahmed +3

We isolate a set of quasars that exhibit emergent C iv broad absorption lines (BALs) in their spectra by comparing spectra in the SDSS Data Release 7 and the SDSS/BOSS Data Release…

Constraining the quasar population with the broad-line width distribution

S. Fine, S. M. Croom, P. F. Hopkins +12

We measure the width of the MgII line in quasar spectra from the SDSS, 2QZ and 2SLAQ surveys and, by invoking an unnormalised virial mass estimator, relate the scatte…

A Catalog of Broad Absorption Line Quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Third Data Release

Jonathan R. Trump, Patrick B. Hall, Timothy A. Reichard +9

We present a total of 4784 unique broad absorption line quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Third Data Release. An automated algorithm was used to match a continuum to each q…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Catalog III. Third Data Release

D. P. Schneider, P. B. Hall, G. T. Richards +50

We present the third edition of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Quasar Catalog. The catalog consists of the 46,420 objects in the SDSS Third Data Release that have luminosities…

The Distribution of Quasars and Galaxies in Radio Color-Color and Morphology Diagrams

Z. Ivezic, R. J. Siverd, W. Steinhardt +12

We positionally match the 6 cm GB6, 20 cm FIRST and NVSS, and 92 cm WENSS radio catalogs and find 16,500 matches in ~3,000 deg2 of sky. Using this unified radio database, we constr…

Continuum and Emission-Line Properties of Broad Absorption Line Quasars

Timothy A. Reichard, Gordon T. Richards, Patrick B. Hall +6

We investigate the continuum and emission-line properties of 224 broad absorption line quasars (BALQSOs) with 0.9<z<4.4 drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Early Data Re…
