MEASURING QUASAR VARIABILITY WITH Pan-STARRS1 AND SDSS
MEASURING QUASAR VARIABILITY WITH Pan-STARRS1 AND SDSS
We measure quasar variability using the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System 1 Survey (Pan-STARRS1 or PS1) and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and establish a method of selecting quasars via their variability in 10,000 square degree surveys. We use 100,000 spectroscopically confirmed quasars that have been well …
