First quasar discovered to be multiply image-lensed by a galaxy cluster and currently the third largest quasar lens with the separation between images of 15″ [5] [6] [7] SDSS J1029+2623 3 Galaxy cluster at z = 0.6 The current largest-separation quasar lens with 22.6″ separation between furthest images [8] [9] [10] SDSS J2222+2745 6 [11]
As a quasar, TON 618 is believed to be the active galactic nucleus at the center of a galaxy, the engine of which is a supermassive black hole feeding on intensely hot gas and matter in an accretion disc. Given its observed redshift of 2.219, the light travel time of TON 618 is estimated to be approximately 10.8 billion years.
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.
Ton 618 (this quasar has possibly the biggest black hole ever found, estimated at 66 billion solar masses) [1] 3C 371; 4C +37.11 (this radio galaxy is believed to have binary supermassive black holes) [2] AP Lib; S5 0014+81 (said to be a compact hyperluminous quasar, estimated at 40 billion solar masses) [3]
At a distance of more than 13.03 billion light years from Earth, J0313–1806 is the most distant— and thus the most ancient — quasar yet seen by astronomers. Astronomers just detected the ...
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.
