Astrophysical: Quasars

  • Publication
    HST confirmation of the lensed quasar J03.13.
    In order to definitely prove the claim by Claeskens et al. (1996A&A...305L...9C) that J03.13 is a doubly imaged quasar, WFPC2 direct imaging and FOS...

    Identification of quasi-stellar objects in the IRAS catalogue
    The authors have studied the IRAS extragalactic catalogue (Lonsdale et al., 1985), with the aim of reliably identifying quasi-stellar objects. Using the best...

    Identifying Missing Quasars from the DESI Bright Galaxy Survey
    The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) cosmology survey includes a Bright Galaxy Survey (BGS), which will yield spectra for over 10 million bright...

    Improvement of the Hubble diagram for QSO's leading towards g(O)
    Using the predictions of the Lynden Bell/Hills model of the energy source of QSO's in which discrete packets of matter (e.g., stars) are converted into...

    IMPZ: a new photometric redshift code for galaxies and quasars
    We present a combined galaxy-quasar approach to template-fitting photometric redshift techniques and show the method to be a powerful one. The code (IMPZ) is...

    Individual Estimates of the Virial Factor in 10 Quasars: Implications on the Kinematics of the Broad-line Region
    Assuming a gravitational origin for the Fe iiiλλ2039-2113 redshift and using microlensing based estimates of the size of the region emitting this feature, we...

    Influence of Microlensing on the Active Galactic Nucleus Fe Kalpha Line
    We have studied the influence of gravitational microlensing on the Fe Kalpha line originating from a compact accretion disc of active galactic nuclei. We found...

    Infrared mergers and infrared quasi-stellar objects with galactic winds - I. NGC 2623: nuclear outflow in a proto-elliptical candidate
    We present the first results of a study of the morphology, kinematics and ionization structure of infrared (IR) mergers/quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) with...

    Infrared mergers and infrared quasi-stellar objects with galactic winds - II. NGC5514: two extranuclear starbursts with LINER properties and a supergiant bubble in the rupture phase
    A study of the morphology, kinematics and ionization structure of the infrared (IR) merger NGC5514 is presented. This study is based mainly on INTEGRAL two...
