Abstract:
The QUEST (QUasar Equatorial Survey Team) Phase 1 camera has collected
multibandpass photometry on a large strip of high Galactic latitude
sky over a period of 26 months. This robust data set has been reduced
and nightly catalogs compared to determine the photometric variability
of the ensemble objects. Subsequent spectroscopic observations have
confirmed a subset of the photometric variables as quasars, as
previously reported. This paper reports on the details of the data
reduction and analysis pipeline and presents multiple bandpass light
curves for 198213 QUEST1 objects, along with global variability
information and matched Sloan photometry.
Description:
Between 1999 February and 2000 April, the QUEST1 variability survey
collected 69 drift scans of the same region of high Galactic latitude
sky. The scans cover a strip of equatorial sky approximately 24 wide
in declination, centered at DE=-1deg, running from RA=10h to 15h30m.
All scans were taken with the 1m Schmidt telescope at the Llano del
Hato Observatory, Venezuela, with the sequence of filters RBRV.
Data were collected in three distinct observing seasons:
1999 February-March, 2000 February-March, and 2001 March-April.
