Scientific paper

We have taken deep g-, r- and K-band images of three fields around Damped Lyman Alpha absorbers at z >= 3.4 using the Double Imaging Spectrograph and the 3.5m telescope at Apache Point Observatory. Using the broad-band colors as a guide to select objects in the field that may be suffering absorption below the Lyman limit at this redshift, we are using a multi-slit technique to obtain low resolution spectra for promising objects in the fields of PC 0201+113, PC 0953+4749 and PC 1301+4747 and will propose follow-up spectra for the best candidates at Keck.
