BRI photometry of 3 QSO fields
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
This paper describes the acquisition and analysis of imaging data for the identification of galaxies associated with z~4 damped Ly{alpha} systems.
Description
We present deep BRI images of three fields known to contain four z~4 damped systems. We discuss the reduction and calibration of the data, detail the color criteria used to identify z~4 galaxies, and present a photometric redshift analysis to complement the color selection.
We have found no galaxy candidates closer to the QSO than 7" that could be responsible for the damped Ly{alpha} systems. Assuming that at least one of the galaxies is not directly beneath the QSO, we set an upper limit on this damped Ly {alpha} system of L<L^*^_LBG_/4. Finally, we have established a Web site to release these imaging data to the public, at kingpin.ucsd.edu/~dlaimg/papers/refern.html .
