This is core-dominated quasar located at a redshift of (z) 1.054, found to be highly polarized. [2] It was first discovered in 1970 as an extragalactic radio source by astronomers [ 3 ] and has a radio spectrum appearing to be flat, making it a flat-spectrum source.
This is a low polarized quasar [5] containing a classic homogeneous synchrotron self-absorption spectrum. [6] The radio spectrum of this source shows a turnover frequency at 5 GHz [5] and this object has also been referred to as a gigahertz-peak spectrum source. [7] [8] DA 193 is found variable on the electromagnetic spectrum.
High-redshift galaxy candidates in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, 2012 [19] The spectrum of light that comes from a source (see idealized spectrum illustration top-right) can be measured. To determine the redshift, one searches for features in the spectrum such as absorption lines, emission lines, or other variations in light intensity. If found ...
Armed with the AO system, it is expected that MUSE will achieve a median spatial resolution of 0.46 arcseconds, or ~3 kpc at a redshift >3, across the 1'x1' field-of-view of the wide-field mode. In the narrow-field mode, the spatial resolution should reach 0.042 arcseconds at 750 nm, corresponding to ~3 pc resolution at the distance of Virgo ...
Amazon Redshift is a data warehouse product which forms part of the larger cloud-computing platform Amazon Web Services. [1] It is built on top of technology from the massive parallel processing (MPP) data warehouse company ParAccel (later acquired by Actian ), [ 2 ] to handle large scale data sets and database migrations . [ 3 ]
A photometric redshift is an estimate for the recession velocity of an astronomical object such as a galaxy or quasar, made without measuring its spectrum.The technique uses photometry (that is, the brightness of the object viewed through various standard filters, each of which lets through a relatively broad passband of colours, such as red light, green light, or blue light) to determine the ...
This should be compared with the resolution of a redshift survey, which must detect individual galaxies that are typically only tens of kiloparsecs across. Because intensity mapping surveys can be carried out much faster than conventional optical redshift surveys, it is possible to map-out significantly larger volumes of the Universe.
According to the SIMBAD database, NGC 3799 is a LINER galaxy, that is to say a galaxy whose nucleus presents an emission spectrum characterized by broad lines of weakly ionized atoms. [2] To date, a non-redshift measurement gives a distance of approximately 47 Mpc (~153 million ly). [4] This value is far outside the Hubble distance values.
