About

    Luminous quasars are extremely bright and energetic objects found at the centers of some galaxies. They are powered by supermassive black holes that are actively accreting matter at a rapid rate. Luminous quasars emit large amounts of radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum, making them visible from great distances. Studying luminous quasars can help researchers understand the properties of black holes, galaxy formation and evolution, and the early universe. These objects are of particular interest to astronomers due to their extreme brightness and the role they play in shaping the galaxies in which they reside.
