Systematically Measuring Ultra Diffuse Galaxies (SMUDGes). I. Survey Description and First Results in the Coma Galaxy Cluster and Environs

Dennis Zaritsky, Richard Donnerstein, Arjun Dey +6

We present a homogeneous catalog of 275 large (effective radius 5.3 arcsec) ultra-diffuse galaxy (UDG) candidates lying within an 290 square degree region surro…

A census of galaxy constituents in a Coma Progenitor observed at z>3

Ke Shi, Kyoung-Soo Lee, Arjun Dey +15

We present a detailed census of galaxies in and around PC217.96+32.3, a spectroscopically confirmed Coma analog at z=3.78. Diverse galaxy types identified in the field include Lya…

A Mid-IR Selected Changing-Look Quasar and Physical Scenarios for Abrupt AGN Fading

Daniel Stern, Barry McKernan, Matthew J. Graham +11

We report a new changing-look quasar, WISE~J105203.55+151929.5 at , found by identifying highly mid-IR variable quasars in the WISE/NEOWISE data stream. Compared to multi-…

A new physical interpretation of optical and infrared variability in quasars

Nicholas P. Ross, K. E. Saavik Ford, Matthew Graham +8

Changing-look quasars are a recently identified class of active galaxies in which the strong UV continuum and/or broad optical hydrogen emission lines associated with unobscured qu…

Discovery of a Very Large (~20 kpc) Galaxy at z=3.72

Kyoung-Soo Lee, Arjun Dey, Thomas Matheson +12

We report the discovery and spectroscopic confirmation of a very large star-forming Lyman Break galaxy, G6025, at z_spec=3.721+/-0.003. In the rest-frame ~2100A, G6025 subtends ~24…

First Data Release of the All-sky NOAO Source Catalog

David L. Nidever, Arjun Dey, Knut Olsen +6

Most of the sky has been imaged with NOAO's telescopes from both hemispheres. While the large majority of these data were obtained for PI-led projects and almost all of the images…
