What makes red quasars red?

open access: yes, 2018
Red quasars are very red in the optical through near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, which is possibly due to dust extinction in their host galaxies as expected in a scenario in which red quasars are an intermediate population between merger-driven star ...

Prospects for Observing High-redshift Radio-loud Quasars in the SKA Era: Paving the Way for 21 cm Forest Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The 21 cm forest is a sensitive probe for the early heating process and small-scale structures during the epoch of reionization (EOR), to be realized with the upcoming Square Kilometre Array (SKA). Its detection relies on the availability of radio-bright

A Pilot Study for the CSST Slitless Spectroscopic Quasar Survey Based on Mock Data

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The wide survey of the Chinese Space Station Telescope (CSST) will observe a large field of 17,500 deg ^2 . The GU, GV, and GI grism observations of CSST will cover the wavelength range from 2550 to 10000 Å at a resolution of R  ∼ 200 and a depth of ...

Backward emission in quasars

open access: yes, 1985
In the local Doppler theory of quasars the lack of observed blueshifts can be explained if quasars, ejected at high velocities from active galactic nuclei, radiate predominantly in a backward cone.

Cosmic Himalayas: The Highest Quasar Density Peak Identified in a 10,000 deg2 Sky with Spatial Discrepancies between Galaxies, Quasars, and IGM H i

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the identification of a quasar overdensity in the BOSSJ0210 field, dubbed the Cosmic Himalayas, consisting of 11 quasars at z = 2.16−2.20, the densest overdensity of quasars (17 σ ) in the ∼10,000 deg ^2 of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS ...

On the masses of black holes in radio-loud quasars

open access: yes, 2001
The central black hole masses of a sample of radio-loud quasars are estimated by using the data of H beta linewidth and the optical continuum luminosity.

Exploring the Spectral Energy Distributions of Luminous Broad Absorption Line Quasars at High Redshift

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present the multiwavelength spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 65 luminous broad absorption line (BAL) quasars with redshifts 1.55 ≲  z  ≲ 3.50 from the Gemini Near Infrared Spectrograph–Distant Quasar Survey (GNIRS-DQS).

Weak bump quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Research into the optical, ultraviolet and infrared continuum emission from quasars and their host galaxies was carried out. The main results were the discovery of quasars with unusually weak infrared emission and the construction of a quantitative ...

VaDAR: Varstrometry for Dual AGN Using Radio Interferometry

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Binary and dual active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are an important observational tool for studying the formation and dynamical evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes.
