PKS 0137+012 also known as PHL 1093, is a radio-loud quasar located in the constellation Cetus. The quasar has a redshift of (z) 0.261, meaning it is estimated to be located 3.14 billion light-years away[1] and was first discovered as a discrete source by astronomers in 1968.[2]
Description
PKS 0137+012 is hosted by a large elliptical galaxy, specifically an early-type galaxy based on a two-dimensional modelling technique.[3][4] It is known to have a close companion located 1.0 arcseconds away suggestive of a close interaction.[5]
The estimated stellar population age for this galaxy suggests that it is 1.7 billion years old, and has a supermassive black hole with a mass of 2.2 x 109 Mʘ.[6][7] A bright knot feature is seen west of its nucleus.[7]
The radio source of PKS 0137+012 is compact. Observations of it made in 1978 have shown this source to contain a flat-spectrum radio component at the quasar's position with a steep-spectrum component located at the ending point of an optical jet, making this similar to the radio source structure of 3C 273.[8] A radio map made by the Very Large Array also showed it has a complex radio lobe featuring a curved structure on its north-eastern side caused by precession of its jet.[9][10] Three other components were discovered with one of them being described as the strongest. It has a flux density of 0.801 ± 0.008 at 1125 MHz.[11]
