- Short Name:
- VII/248
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- This catalogue is an update of the previous versions; as in the previous editions no information about absorption lines of X-ray properties are given, but absolute magnitudes are given, assuming Ho=50km/s/Mpc and q_0_=0. In this edition the 20cm radio flux is listed when available, in place of the 11cm flux. The present edition of this catalogue contains the quasars with measured redshift known prior to January 1st, 2006. It contains 85221 quasars, 1122 BL Lac objects and 21737 active galaxies (including 9628 Seyfert 1s), almost doubling the number listed in the 11th edition. Lists of known lensed quasars (table2.dat) and double quasars (table3.dat) are also given here.

- Description:
- This catalogue is an update of the previous versions. The recent publication of the first release of the 2dF quasar survey (Croom et al., 2001MNRAS.322L..29C, see Cat. <VII/223>) containing nearly 10,000 new QSOs, almost doubled the number of known such objects: there are now 23760 (+10546) quasars (defined as brighter than absolute B magnitude -23), 5751 (+1323) AGNs (defined as fainter than absolute B magnitude -23) of which 2765 are Seyfert 1, and 608 (+146) BL Lac objects from 2173 (+119) references. Like the ninth edition, it includes position and redshift as well as photometry (U, B, V) and 6 and 11 cm flux densities when available. The present edition this catalogue contains the quasars with measured redshift known prior to May 1st, 2001.

- Description:
- This catalogue is a compilation of all known AGNs presented in a compact and convenient form. It is an update of the previous versions; and as in the previous editions no information about absorption lines of X-ray properties are given, but absolute magnitudes are given, assuming Ho=71km/s/Mpc and q_0_=0 (notice the change of cosmology: Ho was assumed to be 50km/s/Mpc in the previous editions). When available, the 20cm and 6cm radio flux are given. The present edition of this catalogue contains the quasars with measured redshift known prior to July 1st, 2009. It contains 133336 quasars, 1374 BL Lac objects and 34231 active galaxies (including 15627 Seyfert 1's), almost doubling the number listed in the 12th edition. Lists of known lensed quasars (table2.dat) and double quasars (table3.dat) are also given here.

- Description:
- We present a new catalogue of ~2400 optically selected quasars with spectroscopic redshifts and X-ray observations from either Chandra or XMM-Newton. The sample can be used to investigate the non-linear relation between the UV and X-ray luminosity of quasars, and to build a Hubble diagram up to redshift z~7.5. We selected sources that are neither reddened by dust in the optical/UV nor obscured by gas in the X-rays, and whose X-ray fluxes are free from flux-limit related biases. After checking for any possible systematics, we confirm, in agreement with our previous works, that (i) the X-ray to UV relation provides distance estimates matching those from supernovae up to z~1.5, and (ii) its slope shows no redshift evolution up to z~5. We provide a full description of the methodology for testing cosmological models, further supporting a trend whereby the Hubble diagram of quasars is well reproduced by the standard flat LambdaCDM model up to z~1.5-2, but strong deviations emerge at higher redshifts. Since we have minimized all non-negligible systematic effects, and proven the stability of the Lx-Lo relation at high redshifts, we conclude that an evolution of the expansion rate of the Universe should be considered as a possible explanation for the observed deviation, rather than some systematic (redshift-dependent) effect associated with high-redshift quasars.

- Quasars behind the Magellanic system
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Description:
- The number and spatial distribution of confirmed quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) behind the Magellanic system is limited. This undermines their use as astrometric reference objects for different types of studies. We have searched for criteria to identify candidate QSOs using observations from the VISTA survey of the Magellanic Clouds system (VMC) that provides photometry in the YJKs bands and 12 epochs in the Ks band. The (Y-J) versus (J-Ks) diagram has been used to distinguish QSO candidates from Milky Way stars and stars of the Magellanic Clouds. Then, the slope of variation in the Ks band has been used to identify a sample of high confidence candidates. These criteria were developed based on the properties of 117 known QSOs presently observed by the VMC survey.

- Quasars from 7C survey

- Description:
- We describe the selection of candidate radio-loud quasars obtained by cross-matching radio source positions from the low-frequency (151-MHz) 7C survey with optical positions from five pairs of EO POSS-1 plates scanned with the Cambridge Automatic Plate-measuring Machine (APM). The sky region studied is centred at RA=10h28m, DE=+41{deg} and covers ~0.057sr. We present VLA observations of the quasar candidates, and tabulate various properties derived from the radio maps. We discuss the selection criteria of the resulting '7CQ' sample of radio-loud quasars. The 70 confirmed quasars, and some fraction of the 36 unconfirmed candidates, constitute a filtered sample with the following selection criteria: 151-MHz flux density S_151_>100mJy; POSS-I E-plate magnitude E~R<20; POSS-I colour (O-E)<1.8; the effective area of the survey drops significantly below S_151_~200mJy. We argue that the colour criterion excludes few if any quasars, but note, on the basis of recent work by Willott et al. (1998MNRAS.300..625W), that the E magnitude limit probably excludes more than 50 per cent of the radio-loud quasars.
