Red Type-1 Quasars after Cosmic Noon and Impact on $L_{\rm UV}$-related Quasar Statistics [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Over the past decades, nearly a million quasars have been explored to shed light on the evolution of supermassive black holes and galaxies. The ultraviolet-to-optical spectra of type-1 quasars particularly offer insights into their black hole activities.

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).

Searching for dual/lensed quasar candidates with spectroscopic surveys [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Dual and lensed quasars are valuable astrophysical targets in many aspects. Dual quasars, considered as the precursors of supermassive black hole binaries, can provide crucial insights into how black hole mergers drive the growth of supermassive black holes and influence the evolution of galaxies.

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 ...

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 ...
