ABSTRACT:A new sample of quasars with complete spectroscopic information down to about 22 mag is presented.
The candidate selection and preliminary
spectroscopic results are reported.
Results are reported from the application of
color-color diagrams, grism plates, and variability analysis in the quasar
selection.
The results on quasar counts, redshift distribution, and luminosity
function at high redshift are discussed.
