Unified models for active galactic nuclei and quasars

, 1993
Because the critical central regions of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and quasars are strongly nonspherical but spatially unresolved, orientation effects have been the source of much confusion. In fact, it now appears that much of the variety in AGN types

Quasars: The Observational Perspectives [PDF]

open access: possible, 2012
The empirical basis of quasar astronomy can be overawing especially in the twenty-first century. A first source of intricacy involves the nomenclature that has evolved to label the multifold phenomenological manifestations now united under the umbrella of active galactic nuclei (AGNs). A further complication involves observations of the many subclasses

Cosmological constraints from the Hubble diagram of quasars at high redshifts

Nature Astronomy, 2018
The concordance model (Λ cold dark matter (ΛCDM) model, where Λ is the cosmological constant) reproduces the main current cosmological observations1–4 assuming the validity of general relativity at all scales and epochs and the presence of CDM and of Λ ...

Quasars

Applied Optics, 1966
A short historical outline of the discovery and a description of observed properties of quasars introduces questions as to their nature. Some of the principal arguments concerning their reality, distance, intrinsic properties and age lead to the conclusion that, while there is room for other points of view; a strong case can be made for the ...

Bayesian Quasar Selection and the Quasar Luminosity Function

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2008
I summarize our work on the construction of deep photometric quasar catalogs using a non‐parametric Bayesian classifier based on kernel density estimation. Using only 5‐band optical data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), we have identified nearly 1,000,000 photometric quasars candidates over ...

Oscillations of Quasars

Science, 1964
Rotation in addition to free gravitational motion can produce oscillations in a large spherical mass of gas. The theory may provide an explanation of the variations of brightness in such objects as 3C273.

Quasars and Superclusters

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983
The topic of quasars and superclusters is only a few years old. Although the first pairs of quasars with small angular separations on the sky were found ten years ago (Stockton 1972, Wampler et al. 1973), the pair members had very different redshifts.
