Description

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). 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.
