Fundamental physics with ESPRESSO: Precise limit on variations in the fine-structure constant towards the bright quasar HE 05154414
Michael T. Murphy, Paolo Molaro, Ana C. O. Leite +40
The strong intervening absorption system at redshift 1.15 towards the very bright quasar HE 05154414 is the most studied absorber for measuring possible cosmological variations…
Near-infrared spectroscopy of extreme BAL QSOs from the QUBRICS bright quasar survey
Guido Cupani, Giorgio Calderone, Pierluigi Selvelli +8
We report on the spectral confirmation of 18 QSO candidates from the "QUasars as BRIght beacons for Cosmology in the Southern hemisphere'' survey (QUBRICS), previously observed in…
The space density of ultra-luminous QSOs at the end of reionization epoch by the QUBRICS Survey and the AGN contribution to the hydrogen ionizing background
A. Grazian, E. Giallongo, K. Boutsia +6
Motivated by evidences favoring a rapid and late hydrogen reionization process completing at z~5.2-5.5 and mainly driven by rare and luminous sources, we have reassessed the estima…
The Probabilistic Random Forest applied to the selection of quasar candidates in the QUBRICS Survey
Francesco Guarneri, Giorgio Calderone, Stefano Cristiani +5
The number of known, bright (), high-redshift () QSOs in the Southern Hemisphere is considerably lower than the corresponding number in the Northern Hemisphere due to…
High star cluster formation efficiency in the strongly lensed Sunburst Lyman-continuum galaxy at z=2.37
E. Vanzella, M. Castellano, P. Bergamini +16
We investigate the strongly lensed (μx10-100) Lyman continuum (LyC) galaxy, dubbed Sunburst, at z=2.37, taking advantage of a new accurate model of the lens. A characterization of…
The Luminosity Function of bright QSOs at z~4 and implications for the cosmic ionizing background
K. Boutsia, A. Grazian, F. Fontanot +8
Based on results by recent surveys, the number of bright quasars at redshifts z>3 is being constantly revised upwards. Current consensus is that at bright magnitudes ($M_{1450}\le…
