Superseded   Multicolor Survey High-Redshift Quasars, z =/> 2.2 (Warren+ 1991)

ADC_Keywords: Galaxy catalogs ; QSOs

Description:
   In a wide-field multicolor survey (45.7 sq. deg, with m[or] between
   16.0 and 20.0) the authors discovered 130 new quasars of which 100
   are of redshift equal to or greater than 2.2.  There are 49 new quasars
   of redshift greater than or equal to 3.0, including three with z
   greater than or equal to 4.0.  The catalog provides spectra,
   coordinates, redshifts, broad-band magnitudes (u, b[j], v, or, r, i),
   line-equivalent widths for Lyman alpha/NV and CIV, and continuum
   spectral indices. Also given are the date of observation, the
   telescope used, a reference to the plot in the printed reference, and
   the FWHM of CIV.
