A search for RR Lyrae stars has been conducted in the publicly available data of the Northern Sky Variability Survey (NSVS). Candidates have been selected by the statistical properties of their variation; the standard deviation, skewness…

We present the discovery of 3 quasar lenses in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), selected using two novel photometry-based selection techniques. The J0941+0518 system, with two point sources separated by 5.46" on either side of a galaxy,…

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has scanned the entire region containing the Draco dwarf spheroidal galaxy to 23rd magnitude in g*. We present a catalog of stars found in a 453 square arcminute, elliptical region centered on the Draco…

Chandra observations of 17 nearby galaxies were analysed and 166 bright sources with X-ray counts > 100, were chosen for temporal analysis. Fractional root mean square variability amplitudes were estimated for lightcurves binned at ~ 4 ksec…

We preform a systematic search for galactic-scale quasar pairs and small-scale (<3 arcsec) lenses using the SDSS DR16 quasar catalog and Gaia DR3. Candidate double quasars (both are unobscured) are identified as Gaia resolved pairs around…

We positionally match the 6 cm GB6, 20 cm FIRST and NVSS, and 92 cm WENSS radio catalogs and find 16,500 matches in ~3,000 deg2 of sky. Using this unified radio database, we construct radio "color-magnitude-morphology" diagrams and find…

We present the results from a time domain study of absorption lines detected in quasar spectra with repeat observations from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (SDSS DR7). Beginning with over 4500 unique time separation baselines…

We have used deep Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE-IV) images ($V \lesssim 23$ mag, $I \lesssim 23$ mag at $3\sigma$) of the Magellanic System, encompassing an area of $\sim$670 deg$^2$, to perform a search for high-$z$ quasar…

We present the initial results from our search for high redshift, z > 6, quasars using near infrared data from the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS). Our analysis of 106 deg^2 of sky from Data Release 1 (DR1)…

We present the discovery of nine quasars at $z\sim6$ identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data. This completes our survey of $z\sim6$ quasars in the SDSS footprint. Our final sample consists of 52 quasars at…

Using 16,421 spectra from a sample of 340 quasars ($1.62<z<3.30$) from the SDSS Reverberation Mapping Project, we present an analysis of quasar spectral variability. We confirm the intrinsic Baldwin Effect and brighter-means-bluer trends in…

We have undertaken a dedicated program of automatic source classification in the WISE database merged with SuperCOSMOS scans, comprehensively identifying galaxies, quasars and stars on most of the unconfused sky. We use the Support Vector…

The census of obscured quasar populations is incomplete, and remains a major unsolved problem, especially at higher redshifts, where we expect a greater density of galaxy formation and quasar activity. We present Gemini GNIRS near-infrared…

We study the spectral energy distributions and evolution of a large sample of optically selected quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) that were observed in 323 Chandra images analyzed by the Chandra Multiwavelength Project…

The physics and demographics of type 2 quasars remain poorly understood, and new samples of such objects selected in a variety of ways can give insight into their physical properties, evolution, and relationship to their host galaxies. We…

We present a catalog of 792 DR5 SDSS quasars with optical spectra that have been observed serendipitously in the X-rays with the \emph{XMM-Newton}. These quasars cover a redshift range of z = 0.11 - 5.41 and a magnitude range of i =…

The VVV survey has allowed for an unprecedented number of multi-epoch observations of the southern Galactic plane. In a recent paper,13 massive young stellar objects(MYSOs) have already been identified within the highly variable(\Delta Ks >…

We present the selection and classification of over a thousand ultraviolet (UV) variable sources discovered in ~ 40 deg^2 of GALEX Time Domain Survey (TDS) NUV images observed with a cadence of 2 days and a baseline of observations of ~ 3…

We study the environments of low redshift (z < 0.5) quasars based on a large and homogeneous dataset from the Stripe 82 region of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We have compared the < 1 Mpc scale envi- ronments of 302 quasars that…
