Additional information

Simpson was PI of the Liverpool Telescope programme to obtain deep photometry of quasar candidates selected from their optical-infrared colours. He reduced and analysed all these data, which enabled the initial list of candidates to be reduced by a factor of 10, and is an essential step permitting rapid spectroscopic follow-up. He is also a Co-I of the Gemini proposal that obtained the quasar spectra. He contributed to later drafts of this paper.
