An 80-kpc Ly alpha halo around a high-redshift type-2 quasi-stellar object
We announce the discovery of an extended emission-line region associated with a high-redshift type-2 quasi-stellar object (QSO). The halo, which was discovered in our new wide-field narrow-band survey, resides at z = 2.85 in the Spitzer First Look Survey region and is extended over ∼80 kpc. Deep ver...
