Model Atmosphere Analysis of the Weakly Magnetic DZ White Dwarf G165-7

P. Dufour, P. Bergeron, G. D. Schmidt +5

A reanalysis of the strongly metal-blanketed DZ white dwarf G165-7 is presented. An improved grid of model atmospheres and synthetic spectra is used to analyze BVRI, JHK, and ugriz…

A Catalog of Spectroscopically Confirmed White Dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4

Daniel J. Eisenstein, James Liebert, Hugh C. Harris +13

We present a catalog of 9316 spectroscopically confirmed white dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4. We have selected the stars through photometric cuts and spec…

The 2dF-SDSS LRG and QSO Survey: The z<2.1 Quasar Luminosity Function from 5645 Quasars to g=21.85

G. T. Richards, S. M. Croom, S. F. Anderson +25

We have used the 2dF instrument on the AAT to obtain redshifts of a sample of z<3, 18.0<g<21.85 quasars selected from SDSS imaging. These data are part of a larger joint programme:…

Discovery of New Ultracool White Dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Evalyn Gates, Geza Gyuk, Hugh C. Harris +14

We report the discovery of five very cool white dwarfs in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Four are ultracool, exhibiting strong collision induced absorption (CIA) from molecul…

A Survey of z>5.7 Quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey II: Discovery of Three Additional Quasars at z>6

Xiaohui Fan, Michael A. Strauss, Donald P. Schneider +14

We present the discovery of three new quasars at z>6 in 1300 deg^2 of SDSS imaging data, J114816.64+525150.3 (z=6.43), J104845.05+463718.3 (z=6.23) and J163033.90+401209.6 (z=6.05)…
