Discovering bright quasars at intermediate redshifts based on the optical/near-IR colors
Xue-Bing Wu, Wenwen Zuo, Jinyi Yang +2
Identifications of quasars at intermediate redshifts (2.2<z<3.5) are inefficient in most previous quasar surveys as their optical colors are similar to those of stars. The near-IR…
Discovery of six high-redshift quasars with the Lijiang 2.4m telescope and the Multiple Mirror Telescope
Xue-Bing Wu, Wen-Wen Zuo, Qian Yang +6
Quasars with redshifts greater than 4 are rare, and can be used to probe the structure and evolution of the early universe. Here we report the discovery of six new quasars with …
Eight new quasars discovered by LAMOST in one extragalactic field
Xue-Bing Wu, Zhendong Jia, Zhaoyu Chen +18
We report the discovery of eight new quasars in one extragalactic field (five degree centered at RA=, Dec=) with the LAMOST commissioning observation…
A very bright i=16.44 quasar in the `redshift desert' discovered by LAMOST
Xue-Bing Wu, Zhaoyu Chen, Zhendong Jia +18
The redshift range from 2.2 to 3, is known as the 'redshift desert' of quasars because quasars with redshift in this range have similar optical colors as normal stars and are thus…
