The correlations between optical variability and physical parameters of quasars in SDSS Stripe 82
Wenwen Zuo, Xue-Bing Wu, Yi-Qing Liu +1
We investigate the optical variability of 7658 quasars from SDSS Stripe 82. Taking advantage of a larger sample and relatively more data points for each quasar, we estimate variabi…

Discovering bright quasars at intermediate redshifts based on the optical/near-IR colors
Xue-Bing Wu, Wenwen Zuo, Jinyi Yang +2
Identifications of quasars at intermediate redshifts (2.2<z<3.5) are inefficient in most previous quasar surveys as their optical colors are similar to those of stars. The near-IR…

Discovery of six high-redshift quasars with the Lijiang 2.4m telescope and the Multiple Mirror Telescope
Xue-Bing Wu, Wen-Wen Zuo, Qian Yang +6
Quasars with redshifts greater than 4 are rare, and can be used to probe the structure and evolution of the early universe. Here we report the discovery of six new quasars with …
