A Left and Right Truncated Schechter Luminosity Function for Quasars

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
The luminosity function for quasars (QSOs) is usually fitted by a Schechter function. The dependence of the number of quasars on the redshift, both in the low and high luminosity regions, requires the inclusion of a lower and upper boundary in the ...

The star formation rates of QSOs

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022
ABSTRACT We examine the far-infrared (FIR) properties of a sample of 5391 optically selected QSOs in the 0.5 < z < 2.65 redshift range down to log [νLν, 2500(erg s−1)] > 44.7, using SPIRE data from Herschel-ATLAS. We split the sample in a grid of 74 luminosity–redshift bins and compute the average optical–IR spectral

Optical variability of some quasars important to ICRF-Gaia CRF link [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2019
The Gaia optical observations started a few years ago. As a result, the Gaia Celestial Reference Frame (Gaia CRF) should replace the International CRF (ICRF).

On discrete-time models of network worm propagation generated by quadratic operators

open access: yesMathematical Modelling and Analysis, 2023
In this paper we consider the discrete-time dynamical systems generated by network worm propagation models based on the theory of quadratic stochastic operators(QSO).

A sample of radio-loud QSOs at redshift ~ 4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We obtained spectra of 60 red, starlike objects (E< 18.8) identified with FIRST radio sources, S_{1.4GHz} > 1 mJy. Eight are QSOs with redshift z> 3.6.Combined with our pilot search (Benn et al 2002), our sample of 121 candidates yields a total of 18 z >

ALMA High-frequency Long-baseline Campaign in 2019: Band 9 and 10 In-band and Band-to-band Observations Using ALMA’s Longest Baselines

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array high-frequency long-baseline campaign in 2019 (HF-LBC-2019) was arranged to undertake band 9 (690 GHz) and 10 (850 GHz) observations using the longest 16 km baselines in order to explore calibration ...

The Optical Polarization of QSOs [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1982
Recent optical polarization studies indicate that there are two distinct types of QSOs — “normal” QSOs with P ≲ 1%, and highly polarized QSOs (HPQs) with P > 3%. The HPQs are very similar to BL Lac objects, yet still share some properties of normal QSO's (e.g. strong emission lines).

Anomalous Redshifts of QSOs [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1980
The evidence for association of high redshift QSOs with low redshift galaxies is subject to controversies. If it can be convincingly argued that the observed associations are accidental and could occur with reasonably high probabilities (say > 5%) then the cosmological interpretation of the redshifts of QSOs remains unaffected by the data.

Radio spectra and polarisation properties of a bright sample of Radio-Loud Broad Absorption Line Quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The origin of broad-absorption-line quasars (BAL QSOs) is still an open issue. Accounting for ~20% of the QSO population, these objects present broad absorption lines in their optical spectra generated from outflows with velocities up to 0.2c.
