Properties of SDSS QSOs in the ChaMP

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We study the spectral energy distributions and evolution of a large sample of optically selected quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey that were observed in 323 Chandra images analyzed by the Chandra Multiwavelength Project.

Description

Our highest-confidence matched sample includes 1135 X-ray detected quasars in the redshift range 0.2<z<5.4, representing some 36Msec of effective exposure. We provide catalogs of QSO properties, and describe our novel method of calculating X-ray flux upper limits and effective sky coverage.

Spectroscopic redshifts are available for about 1/3 of the detected sample; elsewhere, redshifts are estimated photometrically. We detect 56 QSOs with redshift z>3, substantially expanding the known sample. We find no evidence for evolution out to z~5 for either the X-ray photon index {Gamma} or for the ratio of optical/UV to X-ray flux {alpha}_ox_.
