The AAT/WFI survey of the Monoceros Ring and Canis Major Dwarf galaxy: II. from l = (280 - 025)deg
Blair C. Conn,Geraint F. Lewis,Rebecca Lane,Mike Irwin,Rodrigo A. Ibata,Nicolas F. Martin,Michele Bellazzini,Artem V. Tuntsov +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a systematic search for evidence of the Monoceros Ring and Canis Major dwarf galaxy around the Galactic Plane and concluded that the results for the Galactic longitude range of l = (280 - 025)deg.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Evolution and Space Density of Damped Lyman-α Galaxies
TL;DR: The results of a new spectroscopic survey of 66 z ≳ 4 quasars for Damped Lyman-a absorption systems are presented in this article, which led to the discovery of 26 new DLA candidates which are analysed in order to compute the comoving mass density of neutral gas in a non-zero A Universe.
