A Homogeneous Bright QSO Survey
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
This is the first paper in a series aimed at defining a statistically significant sample of QSOs in the range 15<B<18.75 and 0.3<z<2.2.
Description
The selection is carried out using direct plates obtained at the ESO and UK Schmidt Telescopes, scanned with the COSMOS facility and searched for objects with an ultraviolet excess. Follow-up spectroscopy, carried out at ESO La Silla, is used to classify each candidate.
In this initial paper, we describe the scientific objectives of the survey; the selection and observing techniques used. We present the first sample of 285 QSOs (M_B_<-23) in a 153 sq.deg area, covered by the six "deep" fields, intended to obtain significant statistics down B=~18.75 with unprecedented photometric accuracy. From this database, QSO counts are determined in the magnitude range 17<B<18.75.
