Your friendly neighbourhood quasar¶
What would light emerging at the event horizon of a quasar look like?¶
For now that is the goal for this module, what should a quasar look like?
With all fingers crossed for the JWST, I think we are about to be surprised at how ubiquitous quasars are.
Geometry¶
Oscillations, tidal ejection.
In a place where the passage of time is close to zero, but not actually, zero.
JWST¶
The model for quasars outlined in `gotu`_ requires just two parameters.
The central mass and the temperature and density of matter around the Eddington sphere of the quasar’s black hole.
There is a huge range of possible redshifts, depending on these two parameters.
