    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_quasars

    This article contains lists of quasars.More than a million quasars have been observed, [1] so any list on Wikipedia is necessarily a selection of them.. Proper naming of quasars are by Catalogue Entry, Qxxxx±yy using B1950 coordinates, or QSO Jxxxx±yyyy using J2000 coordinates.

  3. Quasar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasar

    A study of the gravitational lensing of this system suggests that the light emitted has been magnified by a factor of ~10. It is still substantially more luminous than nearby quasars such as 3C 273. Quasars were much more common in the early universe than they are today.

  4. List of largest cosmic structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_cosmic...

    This is a list of the largest cosmic structures so far discovered. The unit of measurement used is the light-year (distance traveled by light in one Julian year; approximately 9.46 trillion kilometres). This list includes superclusters, galaxy filaments and large quasar groups (LQGs). The structures are listed based on their longest dimension.

    The ULAS J1342+0928 quasar is located in the Boötes constellation. [3] The related supermassive black hole is reported to be "780 million times the mass of the Sun". [5] At its discovery, it was the most distant known quasar. In 2021 it was eclipsed by QSO J0313-1806 as the most distant quasar. [8]

  9. APM 08279+5255 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APM_08279+5255

    APM 08279+5255 was initially identified as a quasar in 1998 during an Automatic Plate Measuring Facility (APM) survey to find carbon stars in the galactic halo.The combination of its high redshift (z=3.87) and brightness (particularly in the infrared) made it the most luminous object yet seen in the universe.
