摘要:

UKIRT红外深空巡天(UKIDSS)大面积巡天(LAS)有必要的滤波器(Y、J、H和K)、深度(Y <~ 20.2)和面积覆盖(~4000 deg^2)组合,以探测几个红移z >~ 6.4的类星体。第三次数据发布(DR 3)包含了大约1000度^2的LAS观测数据,迄今为止已经发现了两个先前已知的z ~= 6类星体和两个新发现:ULAS J 0203 +0012,z = 5.72; ULAS J1319+0950,z = 6.13。

英文摘要:

The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS) has the necessary combination of filters (Y, J, H and K), depth (Y <~ 20.2) and area coverage (~4000 deg^2) to detect several redshift z >~ 6.4 quasars. The Third Data Release (DR3) included ~1000 deg^2 of LAS observations which have so far yielded two previously known z ~= 6 quasars and two new discoveries: ULAS J0203+0012, at z = 5.72; and ULAS J1319+0950, at z = 6.13.
