SDSS Quasars and Dust Reddening

Patrick B. Hall, Philip Hopkins, Michael Strauss +2

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey can be used to detect and characterize red and reddened quasars. In Richards et al. (2003), we showed that 6% of SDSS quasars have red colors consisten…

Constraints on Quasar Continuum, BELR, and BALR Physics from SDSS Composite Spectra

Gordon T. Richards, Patrick B. Hall, Timothy A. Reichard +3

We review recent results on quasars from the SDSS as they relate to our understanding of the UV/optical continuum, the broad emission line region, and the broad absorption line reg…

The 3D power spectrum of galaxies from the SDSS

M Tegmark, M Blanton, M Strauss +32

We measure the large-scale real-space power spectrum P(k) using a sample of 205,443 galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, covering 2417 square degrees with mean redshift z~0.…

Type II Quasars from the SDSS

Nadia L. Zakamska, Michael A. Strauss, Julian H. Krolik +1

Type II quasars are suggested by unification models of Active Galactic Nuclei as luminous analogs of Seyfert 2 galaxies. A number of different methods have been used hitherto to di…

Quasar Radio Dichotomy: Two Peaks, or not Two Peaks, that is the Question

Z. Ivezic, G. T. Richards, P. B. Hall +8

Recent claims by Ivezic et al. (2002) that the distribution of the radio-to-optical flux ratio, R, for quasars is bimodal (the so-called quasar radio dichotomy) were questioned on…

Counts of Low-redshift SDSS Quasar Candidates

Z. Ivezic, R. H. Lupton, D. E. Johnston +10

We analyze the counts of low-redshift quasar candidates selected using nine-epoch SDSS imaging data. The co-added catalogs are more than 1 mag deeper than single-epoch SDSS data, a…
