| Back to Interesting Follow-up Targets By: Sarah True |
This is a list of all the interesting objects found with magnitude 18.0 < g < 18.2.
The names of each object are linked to the PDF of the SDSS spectra with the ions of each system identified. The blue system is considered the "main" system.
* indicates a blended trough (and therefore less accurate velocity calculations)
NOTE: Velocity is in units of 1000km/s. (e.g. 2.4 = 2400km/s) and flux is in units of 10e-17 ergs/s/cm2/A.
