The Transverse Proximity Effect: A Probe to the Environment, Anisotropy, and Megayear Variability of QSOs
Michael Schirber, Jordi Miralda-Escude, Patrick McDonald
The transverse proximity effect is the expected decrease in the strength of the Lya forest absorption in a QSO spectrum when another QSO lying close to the line of sight enhances t…
Faint AGN and the Ionizing Background
Michael Schirber, James S. Bullock
We determine the evolution of the faint, high-redshift, optical luminosity function (LF) of AGN implied by several observationally-motivated models of the ionizing background. Our…
