It also had the brightest UVOT afterglow ever recorded once corrected for extinction. [46] It had the largest amount of energy ever recorded in the TeV range, [47] and had the most energetic photons ever recorded for a GRB, peaking at 18 TeV. [25] [20] The burst was ten times brighter than any previous GRB detected by the Swift mission. [48]
The object itself was detected in ESO images dating back to 1980, but its identification as a quasar occurred only several decades later. [2]An automated analysis of 2022 data from the European Space Agency's Gaia satellite did not confirm J0529-4351 as too bright to be a quasar, and suggested it was a 16th magnitude star with a 99.98% probability.
List of brightest stars: Brightest star in a transient event Progenitor of SN 1006: 1006 m= −7.5 This was a supernova, and its remnant (SNR) is catalogued as PKS 1459-41 [NB 5] [NB 6] [NB 1] [29] Dimmest star from the Earth UDF 2457: m= 25 [NB 5] [NB 6] Most luminous star LGGS J004246.86+413336.4: 2022 L= 19,953,000 L Sun [30] List of most ...
The brightest gamma ray burst ever detected recently reached our planet. It’s 70 times longer than any other burst we’ve spotted, and effectively blinded our instruments when it hit ...
It possesses a diffuse core which is the largest known core of any galaxy to date, [5] and contains a supermassive black hole, one of the largest discovered. [5] IC 1101 is located at 354.0 megaparsecs (1.15 billion light-years) from Earth. It was discovered on 19 June 1790, by the British astronomer William Herschel. [6]
This view, taken with infrared light, is a false-color image of a quasar-starburst tandem with the most luminous starburst ever seen in such a combination. Quasars show evidence of elements heavier than helium , indicating that galaxies underwent a massive phase of star formation , creating population III stars between the time of the Big Bang ...
