Abstract

In this paper we present the first results of a deep spectroscopicsurvey of faint quasars in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) SouthernSurvey, a deep survey carried out by repeatedly imaging a 270deg2 area. Quasar candidates were selected from the deep datawith good completeness over 02, contains 414 quasars, and
