Description
We present Keck Cosmic Web Imager spectroscopy of the four putative images of the lensed quasar candidate J014710+463040 recently discovered by Berghea et al. The data verify the source as a quadruply lensed, broad absorption-line quasar having ${z}_{{\rm{S}}}=2.377\,\pm \,0.007$. We detect intervening absorption in the Fe ii λλ2586, 2600, Mg ii λλ2796, 2803, and/or C iv λλ1548, 1550 transitions in eight foreground systems, three of which have redshifts consistent with the photometric-redshift...[Show more]
