What We Talk about When We Talk about Blazars?

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2017
After the discovery of powerful relativistic jets from Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 Galaxies, and the understanding of their similarity with those of blazars, a problem of terminology was born.

Model simulation of heavy metals in river systems: case study the Negro river basin

open access: yesRevista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2019
Este trabajo describe la aplicación de un modelo de calidad de agua para la simulación de metales pesados en sistemas fluviales. La estrategia propuesta incluye un enfoque de modelación 1D con la extensión del modelo QUASAR-ADZ para la representación del

Close companions to two high-redshift quasars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We report the serendipitous discoveries of companion galaxies to two high-redshift quasars. SDSS J025617.7+001904 is a z=4.79 quasar included in our recent survey of faint quasars in the SDSS Stripe 82 region.

Confrontarsi con l’assenza

open access: yesmagazén, 2022
The city is a set of arbitrary visual experiences dispersed in time that must necessarily be integrated. In studying the absences, Bruno Toscano writes that “the city would appear to us in a less verisimilar facies if we resigned ourselves to consider

Imprints of the super-Eddington accretion on the quasar clustering

open access: yes, 2017
Super-Eddington mass accretion has been suggested as an efficient mechanism to grow supermassive black holes (SMBHs). We investigate the imprint left by the radiative efficiency of the super-Eddington accretion process on the clustering of quasars using ...

LBQS 1429-0053: a binary quasar rather than a lensed quasar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Very deep ESO/VLT FORS1 and ISAAC images, as well as HST NICMOS2 data are used to infer the nature of the quasar pair LBQS 1429-0053 A and B, either a binary quasar or a doubly-imaged lensed quasar.

Some Constraints on Quasar Progenitors and Quasar Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1986
There is strong evidence that quasars are powered by the gravitational energy released by in fall of matter into a compact supermassive object which is most likely a black hole with mass M>106 to 109MO. The question then arises as to how such massive black holes came to be formed. What sort of objects were the progenitors?

Modeling the HeII Transverse Proximity Effect: Constraints on Quasar Lifetime and Obscuration

open access: yes, 2017
The HeII transverse proximity effect - enhanced HeII Ly{\alpha} transmission in a background sightline caused by the ionizing radiation of a foreground quasar - offers a unique opportunity to probe the emission properties of quasars, in particular the ...

Monitoring and quantifying of water turbidity in the Albufera of Valencia during the 2024 flood using a machine learning model

open access: yesCuadernos de Geografía de la Universitat de València
Monitoring turbidity during flood events is vital for assessing the extent of water contamination, understanding sediment transport dynamics, and guiding emergency response efforts to mitigate ecological damage and health risks. In this study, we aim to
