Surveys and the Blazar Parameter Space

E. S. Perlman, P. Padovani, H. Landt +5

The rareness of blazars, combined with the previous history of relatively shallow, single-band surveys, has dramatically colored our perception of these objects. Despite a quarter-…

Astronomical Constraints on the Cosmic Evolution of the Fine Structure Constant and Possible Quantum Dimensions

C. L. Carilli, K. M. Menten, J. T. Stocke +6

We present measurements of absorption by the 21cm hyperfine transition of neutral hydrogen toward radio sources at substantial look-back times. These data are used in combination w…

FUSE Observations of the Low-Redshift Lyman-beta Forest

J. M. Shull, M. L. Giroux, S. V. Penton +10

We describe a moderate-resolution (20-25 km/s) FUSE study of the low-redshift intergalactic medium. We report on studies of 7 extragalactic sightlines and 12 Ly-beta absorbers that…
