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.
A hot, dust-obscured galaxy, or hot DOG, is a rare type of quasar. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The central black hole of such a galaxy emits vast amounts of radiation which heats the infalling dust and gas, releasing infrared light at a rate about 1,000 times as much as the Milky Way , making these some of the most luminous galaxies in the universe. [ 4 ]
The atoms emitting these lines range from neutral to highly ionized, leaving it highly charged. This wide range of ionization shows that the gas is highly irradiated by the quasar, not merely hot, and not by stars, which cannot produce such a wide range of ionization. Like all (unobscured) active galaxies, quasars can be strong X-ray sources.
PKS 0537-286 (referred to QSO 0537-286), also known as QSO B0537-286, is a quasar located in the constellation Columba. With a redshift of 3.104, the object is located 11.4 billion light years away [1] and belongs to the flat spectrum radio quasar blazar subclass (FSQR). [2] It is one of the most luminous known high-redshift quasars. [3]
SMSS J215728.21-360215.1, commonly known as J2157-3602, is one of the fastest growing black holes and one of the most powerful quasars known to exist as of 2021.The quasar is located at redshift 4.75, [1] corresponding to a comoving distance of 2.5 × 10 10 ly from Earth and to a light-travel distance of 1.25 × 10 10 ly.
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
PKS 1302−102 is a quasar in the Virgo constellation, located at a distance of approximately 1.1 Gpc (around 3.5 billion light-years). [1] It has an apparent magnitude of about 14.9 mag in the V band with a redshift of 0.2784. [1] The quasar is hosted by a bright elliptical galaxy, [3] with two
SDSS J0100+2802 (SDSS J010013.02+280225.8) is a hyperluminous quasar located near the border of the constellations Pisces and Andromeda.It has a redshift of 6.30, [1] which corresponds to a distance of 12.8 billion light-years from Earth and was formed 900 million years after the Big Bang.
