摘要:

红移z=5.0的射电强类星体SDSS J114657.79+403708.6是最遥远的射电强天体之一。红外光度和光谱表明它的黑洞有一个非常大的质量:M=(5+-1)× 1 e9 Msun。该源的射电响度(射电与光通量的比值)很大(约为100),这表明该源是从喷流轴的小角度观察的,可能是一颗耀变体。X射线观测充分证实了这一假设,由于高水平和硬度的通量。这使得SDSS J114657.79+403708.6成为已知的第三个最遥远的耀变体,仅次于Q 0906 +693(z=5.47)和B2 1023+25(z=5.3)。其中,SDSS J114657.79+403708.6拥有最大的黑洞质量,在高红移下对重(大于10亿太阳质量)黑洞的质量函数设置了有趣的限制。

英文摘要:

The radio-loud quasar SDSS J114657.79+403708.6 at a redshift z=5.0 is one of the most distant radio-loud objects. The IR-optical luminosity and spectrum suggest that its black hole has a very large mass: M=(5+-1)x 1e9 Msun. The radio-loudness (ratio of the radio to optical flux) of the source is large (around 100), suggesting that the source is viewed at small angles from the jet axis, and could be a blazar. The X-ray observations fully confirm this hypothesis, due to the high level and hardness of the flux. This makes SDSS J114657.79+403708.6 the third most distant blazar known, after Q0906+693 (z=5.47) and B2 1023+25 (z=5.3). Among those, SDSS J114657.79+403708.6 has the largest black hole mass, setting interesting constraints on the mass function of heavy (larger than one billion solar masses) black holes at high redshifts.
