摘要:

根据其宽波段的光谱能量分布,特别是X射线光谱,射电响亮的活动星系核(AGN)SDSS J102623.61+254259.5(J1026+2542)最近被归类为耀变体。该源极高的红移z=5.3,使其成为迄今为止已知的最遥远、最明亮的射电活动星系核之一。从2006年获得的已发表的5 GHz甚长基线干涉测量(VLBI)成像数据来看,该源在质量尺度上具有典型的耀变体外观,突出的单侧喷流延伸至~20质量。我们估计了J1026+2542的亮温度,没有发现强有力的多普勒增强证据。喷射视角可能至少为~20度。通过多历元VLBI观测,可以在不久的将来可靠地确定喷流的体洛伦兹因子和视角。

英文摘要:

Based on its broad-band spectral energy distribution, and the X-ray spectrum in particular, the radio-loud active galactic nucleus (AGN) SDSS J102623.61+254259.5 (J1026+2542) has recently been classified as a blazar. The extremely high redshift of the source, z=5.3, makes it one of the most distant and most luminous radio-loud AGN known to date. From published 5-GHz very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) imaging data obtained in 2006, the source has a typical blazar appearance on mas scales, with a prominent one-sided jet extending to ~20 mas. We estimate the brightness temperature of J1026+2542 and find no strong evidence for Doppler boosting. The jet viewing angle is possibly at least ~20 deg. The bulk Lorentz factor and the viewing angle of the jet could reliably be determined in the near future from multi-epoch VLBI observations.
