Restless Quasar Activity: From BeppoSAX to Chandra and XMM-Newton
arXiv:astro-ph/0309299 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2004.04.045
Abstract
We briefly review some of the progress made in the last decade in the study of the X-ray properties of the quasar population from the luminous, local objects observed by BeppoSAX to the large, rapidly increasing population of z>4 quasars detected by Chandra and XMM-Newton in recent years.
