Demographics of z ~ 6 Quasars in the Black Hole Mass-Luminosity Plane
Jin Wu, Yue Shen, Linhua Jiang +8
We study the demographics of z ~ 6 broad-line quasars in the black hole (BH) mass-luminosity plane using a sample of more than 100 quasars at 5.7 < z < 6.5. These quasars have well…
Reply to: Three papers regarding the origin of GN-z11-flash
Linhua Jiang, Shu Wang, Bing Zhang +8
In Jiang et al., we detected a bright flash (hereafter GN-z11-flash) that appeared as compact continuum emission during our Keck MOSFIRE observations of the galaxy GN-z11 at z ~ 11…
Metallicity in Quasar Broad Line Regions at Redshift 6
Shu Wang, Linhua Jiang, Yue Shen +10
Broad line regions (BLRs) in high-redshift quasars provide crucial information of chemical enrichment in the early universe. Here we present a study of BLR metallicities in 33 quas…
"A more probable explanation" is still impossible to explain GN-z11-flash: in response to Steinhardt et al. (arXiv:2101.12738)
Linhua Jiang, Shu Wang, Bing Zhang +8
In Jiang et al. (2020), we reported a possible bright flash (hereafter GN-z11-flash) from a galaxy GN-z11 at z ~ 11. Recently, Steinhardt et al. (2021; arXiv:2101.12738) found 27 i…
A possible bright ultraviolet flash from a galaxy at redshift z ~ 11
Linhua Jiang, Shu Wang, Bing Zhang +8
In the optical sky, minutes-duration transients from cosmological distances are rare. Known objects that give rise to such transients include gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the most lumi…
Evidence for GN-z11 as a luminous galaxy at redshift 10.957
Linhua Jiang, Nobunari Kashikawa, Shu Wang +9
GN-z11 was photometrically selected as a luminous star-forming galaxy candidate at redshift z > 10 based on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging data. Follow-up HST near-infrared g…
The Third Data Release of the Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey
Hu Zou, Xu Zhou, Xiaohui Fan +45
The Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey (BASS) is a wide and deep imaging survey to cover a 5400 deg area in the Northern Galactic Cap with the 2.3m Bok telescope using two filters (…
Discovery of 16 New z ~ 5.5 Quasars : Filling in the Redshift Gap of Quasar Color Selection
Jinyi Yang, Xiaohui Fan, Xue-Bing Wu +13
We present initial results from the first systematic survey of luminous quasars. Quasars at 5.5, the post-reionization epoch, are crucial tools to explore the…
The First Data Release of the Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey
Hu Zou, Tianmeng Zhang, Zhimin Zhou +25
The Beijing-Arizona Sky Survey (BASS) is a new wide-field legacy imaging survey in the northern Galactic cap using the 2.3m Bok telescope. The survey will cover about 5400 deg…
The Final SDSS High-Redshift Quasar Sample of 52 Quasars at z>5.7
Linhua Jiang, Ian D. McGreer, Xiaohui Fan +14
We present the discovery of nine quasars at identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data. This completes our survey of quasars in the SDSS footp…
A survey of luminous high-redshift quasars with SDSS and WISE II. the bright end of the quasar luminosity function at z ~ 5
Jinyi Yang, Feige Wang, Xue-Bing Wu +13
This is the second paper in a series on a new luminous z ~ 5 quasar survey using optical and near-infrared colors. Here we present a new determination of the bright end of the quas…
A survey of luminous high-redshift quasars with SDSS and WISE. I. target selection and optical spectroscopy
Feige Wang, Xue-Bing Wu, Xiaohui Fan +14
High-redshift quasars are important tracers of structure and evolution in the early universe. However, they are very rare and difficult to find when using color selection because o…
Capability of Quasar Selection by Combining the SCUSS and SDSS Observations
Hu Zou, Xue-bing Wu, Xu Zhou +15
The South Galactic Cap -band Sky Survey (SCUSS) provides a deep -band imaging of about 5000 deg in south Galactic cap. It is about 1.5 mag deeper than the SDSS -band.…
The Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
K. Abazajian et al.
This paper describes the Third Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). This release, containing data taken up through June 2003, includes imaging data in five bands ov…
