      Finley, Hayley; Petitjean, Patrick; Pâris, Isabelle; Noterdaeme, Pasquier; Brinkmann, Jonathan; Myers, Adam D.; Ross, Nicholas P.; Schneider, Donald P.; Bizyaev, Dmitry; Brewington, Howard; Ebelke, Garrett; Malanushenko, Elena; Malanushenko, Viktor; Oravetz, Daniel; Pan, Kaike; Simmons, Audrey; Snedden, Stephanie (EDP Sciences, 2013)
      We searched quasar spectra from the SDSS-III Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (BOSS) for the rare occurrences where a strong damped Lyman-α absorber (DLA) blocks the Broad Line Region emission from the quasar and ...
    • The large-scale quasar-Lyman
