Abstract
The recent publication of the first release of the 2dF quasar catalogue (Croom et al. 2001) containing nearly 10 000 new QSOs, almost doubling the number of known such objects, led us to prepare an updated version of our catalogue of quasars and active nuclei which now contains 23760 quasars, 608 BL Lac objects and 5751 active galaxies (of which 2765 are Seyfert 1s). Like the ninth edition, it includes position and redshift as well as photometry (U, B, V) and 6 and 11 cm flux densities when available. We also give a list of all known lensed and double quasars.


Key words: quasars: general -- galaxies: Seyfert -- BL Lacertae objects: general

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.
  • If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
  • You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
  • You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
