# Quasar Luminosity
Astronomy 3350 Final Project: Quasar Luminosity
Authored by: Aiden Zelakiewicz, Kevin Hoy, Rachel Slaybaugh, Simon Filbert, and Sebastian Nunez-Ceardi
This notebook calculates the rest spectral flux density and spectral energy distributions (SED) of quasars from multiple surveys.
Surveys where data has been acquired from are Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) and are stored in the included data file qsodata.dat (provided by Don Terndrup).
This notebook has heavy dependencies on a python packages numpy, pandas, and matplotlib.pyplot to handle data, compute values and plot figures.
## Key Figures
Provided below are some of the main figures resulting from this study.
See the notebook for explanations of the figures and how they were calculated.
