Quasar luminosity function from SDSS-DR3

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We determine the number counts and z=0-5 luminosity function for a well-defined, homogeneous sample of quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS).

Description

We conservatively define the most uniform statistical sample possible, consisting of 15343 quasars within an effective area of 1622{deg}^2^ that was derived from a parent sample of 46420 spectroscopically confirmed broad-line quasars in the 5282{deg}^2^ of imaging data from SDSS Data Release 3.

The sample extends from i=15 to 19.1 at z<~3 and to i=20.2 for z>~3.
