我们在红色类星体周围发现了巨大的"超级泡",为强大的星系范围的外流提供了明确的证据. 这些外流对于理解星系如何形成和演变至关重要.
科学领域:
- 天体物理学 天体物理学
- 银河系的进化 银河系的进化
- 宇宙的外流是宇宙的外流.
背景情况:
- 类星体驱动的外流对于星系形成模型至关重要.
- 之前的研究已经观察到类星体的外流,但大规模结构没有得到很好的描述.
研究的目的:
- 为了研究发光的红色类星体周围的电离气体星云的性质.
- 为整个银河系的类星体驱动的外流提供观测证据.
主要方法:
- 使用双子卫星的积分场单位观测.
- 分析了在z ~ 0.4.4处的三个类星体周围的电离气体星云的形态和动力学.
主要成果:
- 在发光的红色类星体周围发现了前所未有的"超级泡"对,直径约为20kpc.
- 在红色和蓝色移动的气泡之间观察到的视线速度差异高达1200公里/秒.
- 壮观的双泡形态和动力学为银河系范围内的外流提供了明确的证据.
结论:
- 观察到的泡对是超级泡"爆发"阶段的标志.

Detection of Black Holes
Their closest cousins are neutron stars, which are composed almost entirely of neutrons packed against each other, making them extremely dense. A neutron star has the same mass as the Sun but its diameter is only a few kilometers. Therefore, the escape velocity from their surface is close to the speed of light.
Not until the 1960s, when the first neutron...

The minimum speed required to launch a projectile from the surface of an object to which it is gravitationally bound so that it eventually escapes the object’s gravitational field is called the escape velocity. The escape velocity is independent of the mass of the object. Merging the idea of escape...
