From the first published z > 3 survey of 21-cm absorption within the hosts of radio galaxies and quasars, we found an apparent dearth of cool neutral gas at high redshift. ... This indicates that he non-detection of 21-cm absorption is not due to the sensitivity limits of current radio telescopes, but rather that the lines-of-sight to the quasars, and probably the bulk of the host galaxies, are devoid of neutral gas. | ...

... Posts tagged ?afterglow? ... Without an optical afterglow, a galaxy within the 2 arc second error region of a GRB x-ray afterglow is identified as a host galaxy; however confusion can rise due to the facts that 1. the edge of a galaxy is diffused, 2. multiple sources could exist within 2 arc second error region, 3.the distance between the galaxy and the x-ray afterglow is measured by projection, and 4. lensing causes increase of brightness and position shifts. ...
