VizieR Online Data Catalog: The GNRIS-Distant Quasar Survey (GNRIS-DQS) (Matthews+, 2021)

We have obtained NIR (~0.8-2.5um) spectra of 272 quasars at high redshift using the Gemini Near-Infrared Spectrograph (GNIRS), at the Gemini North Observatory, with a Gemini Large and Long Program. Our Distant Quasar Survey (GNIRS-DQS) was designed to produce spectra that, at a minimum, encompass the essential Hβ and [OIII] region in each source.

The GNIRS-DQS targets were selected from the spectroscopic quasar catalog of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), primarily from SDSS Data Release 12 (Paris+ 2017, VII/279) and supplemented by SDSS Data Release 14 (DR14; Paris+ 2018, VII/286). The observation log of the original 272 sources (spanning 2017 Aug 31 to 2020 Mar 11) appears in Table 1.
