An X-ray jet has been discovered in PKS 1127-145 by Chandra X-ray Observatory. [16] With an estimated length of 300 kiloparsecs, this makes the longest one detected so far in any of the high redshift quasars. [17] Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer also revealed a complex structure in the X-ray jet from the core with bright knots of different ...
See also: Quasar, List of quasars 3C 454.3 is a blazar (a type of quasar with a jet oriented toward Earth ) located away from the galactic plane . It is one of the brightest gamma ray sources in the sky, [ 2 ] and is one of the most luminous astronomical object ever observed, with a maximum absolute magnitude of -31.4. [ 3 ]
The components of the jet have been found to move by about 0.25–0.42 mas, which at the distance of the jet represent apparent speeds that are 5 to 15 times faster than the speed of light. [6] The radio jet exhibits superluminal motion for 0.12 to 12 mas, with apparent speeds that accelerate from ~5 c to ~15c within 0.3 mas.
Twin Quasar: 1979 Lensed into 2 images The lens is a galaxy known as YGKOW G1: First quasar found with a jet with apparent superluminal motion 3C 279: 1971 [25] [26] [27] First quasar found with the classic double radio-lobe structure 3C 47: 1964 First quasar found to be an X-ray source 3C 273: 1967 [39] First "dustless" quasar found
PKS 0420-014 is a blazar [1] located in the constellation of Eridanus. This is a high polarized quasar [2] [3] with a redshift of (z) 0.915, [4] first discovered as an astronomical radio source by astronomers in 1975. [5] The radio spectrum of this source appears to be flat, making it a flat-spectrum radio quasar (FRSQ). [6] [7]
Mauricio Umansky is locking lips with someone new. Amid his year-long separation from Kyle Richards, the Buying Beverly Hills star was spotted kissing a mystery woman in Greece.In a pic obtained ...
Artist's rendering of the accretion disc in ULAS J1120+0641, a very distant quasar containing a supermassive black hole with a mass two billion times that of the Sun [1] The Chandra X-ray image is of the quasar PKS 1127-145, a highly luminous source of X-rays and visible light about 10 billion light-years from Earth. An enormous X-ray jet ...
Even more amazingly, she told the Washington Post three years ago, her fighter jet was unarmed – it had no missiles. She was to be a kamikaze pilot if necessary. She was to be a kamikaze pilot ...
