Mean Spectral Energy Distributions and Bolometric Corrections for Luminous Quasars
Coleman Krawczyk,Gordon T. Richards,Sajjan S. Mehta,Michael S. Vogeley,Sarah C. Gallagher,Karen M. Leighly,Nicholas P. Ross,Donald P. Schneider +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the mid-infrared (mid-IR) through ultraviolet spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of 119,652 luminous broad-lined quasars with 0.064 1.6; the latter is a possible indicator of the strength of the accretion disk wind, which is expected to be SED dependent.

TL;DR: In this article, a very red optical-to-near-infrared (O2NIR) object was detected with very blue nearinfrared colours next to the recently discovered nearby L-dwarf SDSS J141624.08+134826.7.
