Superseded Multicolor Survey High-Redshift Quasars, z =/> 2.2 (Warren+ 1991)
================================================================================
A Wide-Field Multicolor Survey for High-Redshift Quasars, z 2.2 II. The Quasar
Catalog

ADC_Keywords: Galaxy catalogs ; QSOs
Description:
In a wide-field multicolor survey (45.7 sq. deg, with m[or] between
16.0 and 20.0) the authors discovered 130 new quasars of which 100
are of redshift equal to or greater than 2.2. There are 49 new quasars
of redshift greater than or equal to 3.0, including three with z
greater than or equal to 4.0. The catalog provides spectra,
coordinates, redshifts, broad-band magnitudes (u, b[j], v, or, r, i),
line-equivalent widths for Lyman alpha/NV and CIV, and continuum
spectral indices. Also given are the date of observation, the
telescope used, a reference to the plot in the printed reference, and
the FWHM of CIV.
