Abstract:
The completeness of sample is especially important for the research of
quasar and using data in one wavelength, such as in radio, infrared,
optical or X-ray selection, to make candidate selection always suffers
significant selection effect to some extent. Fortunately, some large
area surveys have become increasingly prevalent across all wavelengths
over the past decade, such as SDSS, NVSS, FIRST, RASS, etc. These
surveys make it possible to select candidates in multiple wavelengths
and the resulting sample is more complete.
