SDSS-GALEX QSO catalog

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We discuss a sample of ~60000 objects from the combined Sloan Digital Sky Survey-Galaxy Evolution Explorer (SDSS-GALEX) database with UV-optical colors that should isolate QSOs in the redshift range 0.5-1.5.

Description

We use SDSS spectra of a subsample of ~4500 to remove stellar and galaxy contaminants in the sample to a very high level, based on the 7-band photometry. We discuss the distributions of redshift, luminosity, and reddening of the 19100 QSOs (~96%) that we estimate to be present in the final sample of 19812 point sources.
