Descripción
The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has a rich history of releasing
value-added catalogs for objects of interest to researchers, especially
quasars. In that vein, we present the sixteenth quasar catalog for SDSS
and the last quasar catalog for the extended Baryon Oscillation
Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS). This new catalog of quasars, the largest
to date, will include all previously identified and inspected quasars
from past catalog releases and should add ~100,000 newly observed
quasars detected over an area larger than 9300 deg2. Overall the catalog
will contain about 750,000 unique quasars, of which ~400,000 will have
been visually confirmed and inspected. In addition to presenting
redshift and spectroscopic data obtained from SDSS and eBOSS, we will
include multiwavelength data for many quasars from 2MASS, GALEX, UKIDSS,
ROSAT, XMM, and WISE. "This material is based upon work supported by the
