The Discovery of a High Redshift X-ray Emitting QSO Very Close to the Nucleus of NGC 7319


الملخص بالإنكليزية

A strong X-ray source only 8 from the nucleus of the Sy2 galaxy NGC 7319 in Stephans Quintet has been discovered by Chandra. We have identified the optical counterpart and show it is a QSO with $z_e = 2.114$. It is also a ULX with $L_x = 1.5 x 10^{40} erg sec^{-1}$. From the optical spectra of the QSO and interstellar gas in the galaxy (z = .022) we show that it is very likely that the QSO and the gas are interacting.
