They found a type of ultra-powerful galaxy that gobbles up everything around it. Its energy is so intense that, if it were ...

"We would like to understand the difference between these systems, which holds the clue to understand just how many cosmic ...

is considered to be smaller than typical quasars, which can reach masses that are billions of times heavier than our star. “This seems to indicate that you don’t necessarily need an ...

The Role of Quasars and Star Formation Quasars are incredibly powerful and are often found at the centers of galaxies where ...

"Interestingly, the quasar powering this massive radio jet does not have an extreme black hole mass compared to other quasars." Astronomers have detected the largest black hole-launched jet ever ...

Chinese astronomers have investigated quasar candidates from the DESI Legacy Surveys (DESI-LS) photometry catalog. As a result, they detected 19 strongly-lensed, dual and projected quasars.

Astronomers have identified the brightest object ever observed in the universe, a quasar named J0529-4351. This quasar is 500 trillion times brighter than the Sun, setting a new record for ...

Abstract: Quasars in the Age of Time-Domain Astronomy: Black hole feeding, visible as quasars, is a critical ingredient in many fields from galaxy evolution to multi-messenger gravitational wave ...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Telescopes around the world have spotted a monster radio jet streaming from a quasar dating back to the first 1 billion years of the universe. At double the width of our ...

Astronomers used an array of telescopes to find the most massive radio jet in the early universe. The celestial object is ...
