... Using the DRAO Synthesis Telescope (Landecker et al. 2000), the Canadian Galactic Plane Survey ( CGPS ; Taylor et al. 2002) has captured a multitude of HISA features, the majority of which are invisible in prior surveys at lower resolution. ... Since the HISA gas temperature must be less than the background brightness temperature, all the H I shown in this poster has T ~ 100 K. Figure 1 provides panoramic views of the cold H I visible as HISA in the CGPS. ... GIFs: HISA + CO | HISA only | ...

... The distribution of redshifts among the DXRBS FSRQs identified so far (Figure 3) is quite similar to that of the 1 Jy and S4 samples. ... A more thorough comparison will have to await completion of our survey and the convolution of the redshift distribution with the WGACAT sky coverage. As has already been mentioned by Hook et al. (1996), selecting flat-spectrum sources is an efficient way of finding high-redshift, radio-loud quasars. ...
