Implications of Dramatic Broad Absorption Line Variability in the Quasar FBQS J1408+3054

Patrick B. Hall, Konstantin Anosov, R. L. White +5

We have observed a dramatic change in the spectrum of the formerly heavily absorbed `overlapping-trough' iron low-ionization broad absorption line (FeLoBAL) quasar FBQS J1408+3054.…

Spectropolarimetry of Radio-Selected Broad Absorption Line Quasars

M. A. DiPompeo, M. S. Brotherton, R. H. Becker +4

We report spectropolarimetry of 30 radio-selected broad absorption line (BAL) quasars with the Keck Observatory, 25 from the sample of Becker et al. (2000). Both high and low-ioniz…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey Quasar Lens Search. IV. Statistical Lens Sample from the Fifth Data Release

Naohisa Inada, Masamune Oguri, Min-Su Shin +20

We present the second report of our systematic search for strongly lensed quasars from the data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). From extensive follow-up observations of 136…

The Chandra ACIS Survey of M33: X-ray, Optical and Radio Properties of the Supernova Remnants

Knox S. Long, William P. Blair, P. Frank Winkler +13

M33 contains a large number of emission nebulae identified as supernova remnants (SNRs) based on the high [S II]:Ha ratios characteristic of shocked gas. Using Chandra data from th…

Radio Detection of Radio-Quiet Galaxies

J. A. Hodge, R. H. Becker, R. L. White +1

We investigate the radio emission of ~185,000 quiescent (optically unclassifiable) galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). By median-stacking FIRST cutouts cent…

Evidence for Quasar Activity Triggered by Galaxy Mergers in HST Observations of Dust-reddened Quasars

Tanya Urrutia, Mark Lacy, Robert H. Becker

We present Hubble ACS images of thirteen dust reddened Type-1 quasars selected from the FIRST/2MASS Red Quasar Survey. These quasars have high intrinsic luminosities after correcti…
