  2. QSO J0529-4351 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QSO_J0529-4351

    The redshift of J0529-4351 is 3.962. The object itself is classified as a radio-quiet quasar.Fitting accretion models to the spectra yields an accretion rate of matter onto the black hole of 280 to 490 solar masses per year for an accretion disk around the black hole observed at an angle of zero to 60 degrees, with accretion occurring near the Eddington limit.

  3. High brightness monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_brightness_monitor

    Sunlight readable monitors typically provide at least 800 nits of brightness, [1] [non-primary source needed] versus 200–300 nits brightness for a typical desktop computer monitor. [2] Sunlight readable monitors may also be optically bonded.

    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.

    RX J1131-1231 is the name of the complex, quasar, host galaxy and lensing galaxy, together. The quasar's host galaxy is also lensed into a Chwolson ring about the lensing galaxy. The four images of the quasar are embedded in the ring image. Cloverleaf: 4 [3] Brightest known high-redshift source of CO emission [4] QSO B1359+154: 6

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3C_273

    3C 273 is a quasar located at the center of a giant elliptical galaxy in the constellation of Virgo. It was the first quasar ever to be identified and is the visually brightest quasar in the sky as seen from Earth, with an apparent visual magnitude of 12.9. [2] The derived distance to this object is 749 megaparsecs (2.4 billion light-years).

  7. Cloverleaf quasar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloverleaf_quasar

    This suggests the quasar is currently undergoing an intense wave of star formations thus increasing its luminosity. [3] A radio jet has also been found on the side of quasar according to a study published in 2023. [5] CCD image of the Cloverleaf quasar taken in March 1988 by the ESO/MPI 2.2m telescope. The four separated images are part of the ...

  8. Waveform monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveform_monitor

    The level of a video signal usually corresponds to the brightness, or luminance, of the part of the image being drawn onto a regular video screen at the same point in time. A waveform monitor can be used to display the overall brightness of a television picture, or it can zoom in to show one or two individual lines of the video signal.

    A widely used de facto standard, introduced with XGA-2 and other early "multiscan" graphics cards and monitors, with an unusual aspect ratio of 5:4 (1.25:1) instead of the more common 4:3 (1. 3:1), meaning that even 4:3 pictures and video will appear letterboxed on the narrower 5:4 screens. This is generally the native resolution—with ...
