MALS SALT-NOT survey of MIR-selected powerful radio-bright AGN at 0<z<3.5

N. Gupta, G. Shukla, R. Srianand +20

We present results of an optical spectroscopic survey using SALT and NOT to build a WISE mid-infrared color-based, dust-unbiased sample of powerful radio-bright (200 mJy at 1.4…

The MeerKAT Absorption Line Survey (MALS)

N. Gupta, R. Srianand, W. Baan +41

Deep galaxy surveys have revealed that the global star formation rate (SFR) density in the Universe peaks at 1 < z < 2 and sharply declines towards z = 0. But a clear picture of th…

Implications of an updated ultraviolet background for the ionization mechanisms of intervening Ne VIII absorbers

Tanvir Hussain, Vikram Khaire, Raghunathan Srianand +2

Ne VIII absorbers seen in QSO spectra are useful tracers of warm ionized gas, when collisional ionization is the dominant ionization process. While photoionization by the ultraviol…

Detection of emission lines from z ~ 3 DLAs towards the QSO J2358+0149

Raghunathan Srianand, Tanvir Hussain, Pasquier Noterdaeme +5

Using VLT/X-shooter we searched for emission line galaxies associated to four damped Lyman- systems (DLAs) and one sub-DLA at 2.73<=z<=3.25 towards QSO J2358+0149. We detect [O…

HST/COS detection of a Ne VIII absorber towards PG 1407+265: An unambiguous tracer of collisionally ionized hot gas?

Tanvir Hussain, Sowgat Muzahid, Anand Narayanan +4

We report the detection of Ne VIII in a z_abs = 0.59961 absorber towards the QSO PG 1407+265 (z_em = 0.94). Besides Ne VIII, absorption from HI Lyman series lines (HI 1025 - 915),…
