UBVRI observations of 37 QSOs are reported. The sample is considered as a good representation of the bright (V not greater than 17) quasars in the compilation...
Unidentified quasars among stationary objects from Gaia DR2
Here we apply a technique selecting quasar candidates purely as sources with zero proper motions in the Gaia data release 2 (DR2). We demonstrate that this...
Unravelling the nature of the dual AGN in the galaxy pair system IRAS 05589+2828 and 2MASX J06021107 + 2828382
We have studied the nuclear region of the previously detected dual AGN system in the galaxy pair IRAS 05589 + 2828 and 2MASX J06021107 + 2828382, through new...
Unveiling the monster heart: unbeamed properties of blazar 4C 71.07
4C 71.07 is a high-redshift blazar whose optical radiation is dominated by quasar-like nuclear emission. We here present the results of a spectroscopic...
UV and optical variability of the low luminosity quasar PG 1351+64
PG 1351+64 is a bright radio quiet quasar (z = 0.088, mV ≅ 14). IUE observations obtained within few months in 1982 - 1983 showed variations in the 1200 - 2000...
Variability of the blazar 4C 38.41 (B3 1633+382) from GHz frequencies to GeV energies
Context. After years of modest optical activity, the quasar-type blazar 4C 38.41 (B3 1633+382) experienced a large outburst in 2011, which was detected...
Verifican por primera vez en cuásares el Principio de Equivalencia de Einstein
Según la teoría de la relatividad general de Einstein, la luz siente la influencia de la gravedad al igual que la materia. Una consecuencia de esta teoría...
Very High Energy γ-Rays from the Universe's Middle Age: Detection of the z = 0.940 Blazar PKS 1441+25 with MAGIC
The flat-spectrum radio quasar PKS 1441+25 at a redshift of z = 0.940 is detected between 40 and 250 GeV with a significance of 25.5σ using the MAGIC telescopes...
Very high redshift quasars and the rapid emergence of supermassive black holes
The observation of quasars at very high redshift such as Pōniuā'ena is a challenge for models of supermassive black hole (SMBH) formation. This work presents a...
