cds-question@unistra.frquasarsultraviolet-photometryspectroscopyultraviolet-astronomySpectra, positions, magnitudes and colours are presented for 1400 faint (B<~21mag) stellar objects identified in a complete, ultraviolet-excess (UVX) survey. The objects were selected from COSMOS machine measurements of UK Schmidt U and J plates and observed with the Fibre Optic Coupled Aperture Plate (FOCAP) system at the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT). In total, 420 QSOs were identified, of which nine belong to the broad absorption line (BAL) class of QSOs. A further 57 galaxies with narrow emission lines were found. Halo subdwarfs from the vast majority (~90 per cent) of the 824 galactic stars identified in this survey; the remaining galactic stars are comprised principally of hot white dwarfs (42 objects) and horizontal branch stars (nine objects). Updated versions of the QSO number-magnitude relation and luminosity function derived from this survey are also presented in this paper.1990MNRAS.243....1Bhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/MNRAS/243/1CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/MNRAS/251/482 : A spectroscopic survey of faint QSOs (Boyle+ 1991)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/243/1https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/243/1http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/MNRAS/243/1https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/243/1https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/243/1http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/MNRAS/243/1GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/MNRAS/243/1/table6 (The QSO catalogue)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table6?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table6?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table6?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true12.642547-28.0404740.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/MNRAS/243/1/table7 (The stellar catalogue)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table7?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table7?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table7?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true12.653436-27.978540.005555555555555556Cone search capability for table J/MNRAS/243/1/table8 (Unidentified Objects)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table8?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table8?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/MNRAS/243/1/table8?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true12.862229-29.3768140.0055555555555555565/8590 8939 12121 6/16644 16645 16658 26025 26171 26174 26257 26259 26260 26262 26263 26269 27046 27047 27052 27053 27055 31410 31411 31414 31416 31417 31419 31420 34354 34355 34366 34448 34449 35755 35768 35770 46510 46511 46853 48463 48474 48492 48493 48496 484984.0234554602041486e-19 4.920466254354166e-19https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/MNRAS/243/1?format=asciiUVdefaultJ/MNRAS/243/1/table6The QSO cataloguerecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
