Variable 21 cm absorption at z = 0 . 3127
We report multi-epoch GMRT HI observations of the z = 0.3127 damped absorber towards the quasar PKS 1127-145 , which reveal variability in both the absorption profile and the flux of the background source, over a timescale of a few days. The observed variations cannot be explained by simple inter-stellar scintillation (ISS) models where there are only one or two scintillating components and all...
متن کاملDetection of the 2175 Å extinction feature and 21 - cm absorption in two Mg ii systems at z ∼ 1 . 3
We have discovered two dusty intervening Mg ii absorption systems at z ∼ 1.3 in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) database. The overall spectra of both QSOs are red (u-K>4.5 mag) and are well modelled by the composite QSO spectrum reddened by the extinction curve from the Large Magellanic Cloud(LMC2) Supershell redshifted to the rest-frame of the Mg ii systems. In particular, we detect clearl...
متن کاملThe detectability of H I 21 - cm absorption in damped Lyman - α systems
In this paper we investigate the possible reasons why H I 21-cm absorption in damped Lyman-α systems (DLAs) has only been detected at low redshift: To date, no 21-cm absorption has yet been detected at zabs > 2.3 and at redshifts less than this, there is a mix of detections and non-detections in the DLAs searched. This has been attributed to the morphologies of the galaxies hosting the DLAs, wh...
متن کاملHI 21 cm absorption in low z damped Lyman - α systems
We report Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) 21 cm observations of two confirmed and one candidate low redshift damped Lyman-α systems (DLAS). HI absorption was detected in the two confirmed systems, at z = 0.2378 and z = 0.5247, with spin temperatures of 2050 ± 200 K and 330 ± 70 K respectively. The non-detection of absorption in the third (candidate) system places an upper limit on its op...
متن کاملHI 21 cm absorption at z ∼ 3 . 39 towards PKS 0201 + 113
We report the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope detection of HI 21cm absorption from the z ∼ 3.39 damped Lyman-α absorber (DLA) towards PKS 0201+113, the highest redshift at which 21cm absorption has been detected in a DLA. The absorption is spread over ∼ 115 km s−1 and has two components, at z = 3.387144(17) and z = 3.386141(45). The stronger component has a redshift and velocity width in agreem...
