We have obtained optical imaging with the Canada France Hawaii Telescope (CFHT) of 21 2MASS-selected QSOs of redshift greater than 0.3. This paper complements the sample of lower redshift 2MASS QSOs previously published. The QSOs have…

We present 1.4 and 5 GHz observations taken with the Very Large Array (VLA), and observations at 250 GHz obtained with the Max-Planck millimeter bolometer (MAMBO) at the IRAM 30~m telescope, of ten optically selected Quasi-stellar Objects…

The Red MSX Source (RMS) survey is a multi-wavelength programme of follow-up observations designed to distinguish between genuine massive young stellar objects (MYSOs) and other embedded or dusty objects, such as ultra compact (UC) HII…

The colours of high redshift Type II QSOs are synthesized from observations of moderate redshift systems. It is shown that Type II QSOs are comparable to starbursts in their success at matching the colours of z_850-dropouts and i_775-drops…

We present moderate (1'') and high resolution (0.2'') observations of the CO(2-1) emission at 43 GHz, and radio continuum emission at 1.47 GHz, from the z=4.7 QSO BRI 1202-0725 and the z=4.4 QSO BRI 1335--0417 using the Very Large Array.…

The X-ray source CXOXBJ142607.6+353351 (CXOJ1426+35), which was identified in a 172 ks Chandra image in the Bootes field, shows double-peaked rest-frame optical/UV emission lines, separated by 0.69" (5.5 kpc) in the spatial dimension and by…

We report on the spectroscopic identification and the long awaited redshift measurement of the heavily obscured, gravitationally lensed radio source PKS 1830-211, which was first observed as a radio Einstein ring. The NE component of the…

We present preliminary results from the 2-degree Field (2dF) QSO Redshift Survey currently under way at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. This survey aims to determine the redshifts of >25000 QSOs over a redshift range of 0.3<z<3.0 with the…

Quasars at early redshifts ($z > 6$) with companion galaxies offer unique insights into the growth and evolution of the first supermassive black holes. Here, we report on a 150 ks Chandra observation of PSO J308.0416$-$21.2339, a $z=6.23$…

From 2011 to 2021, LAMOST has released a total of 76,167 quasar data. We try to search for gravitationally lensed QSOs by limiting coordinate differences and redshift differences of these QSOs. The name, brightness, spectrum, photometry and…

In the last years, progress has been very rapid in the domain of molecules at high redshift, and we know in better detail now the molecular and dust content in several systems beyond z=1 and up to z = 5. The first discovery in 1992 by Brown…

We have obtained very deep near-infrared images in the fields of 10 QSOs whose spectra contain damped Lyman-alpha absorption (DLA) systems with 1.7<z_abs <2.5. The main aim of our investigation is to provide new constraints on the…

We present a detailed analysis of a sample of radio-detected quasars, obtained by matching together objects from the FIRST and 2dF Quasar Redshift Surveys. The dataset consists of 113 sources, spanning a redshift range 0.3 < z < 2.2, with…

The Hubble Deep Field-South (HDF-S) was chosen to have a QSO (RA 22:33:37.6 Dec -60:33:29 J2000 and B=17.5) in the field to allow for studies of absorption systems intersecting the sight line to the QSO. To assist in the planning of HDF-S…

We cross-correlate QSOs from the 2dF Survey with galaxy groups. The galaxy samples are limited to B < 20.5. We use an objective algorithm to detect galaxy groups. A 3sigma anti-correlation is observed between QSOs and galaxy groups. This…

We present a photometric analysis of all high Galactic lattitude (|b| > 20d) broad-band parallel images taken by the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) instrument during its initial lifetime in HST Cycle 7. These…

Quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) whose spectral energy distributions (SEDs) are reddened by dust either in their host galaxies or in intervening absorber galaxies are to a large degree missed by optical color selection criteria like the one…

We present detections of emission at 250 GHz (1.2 mm) from two high redshift QSOs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey sample using the bolometer array at the IRAM 30m telescope. The sources are SDSSp 015048.83+004126.2 at z = 3.7, and SDSSp…
