J1145-0033 - the most distant giant radio source?

Published 4 Apr 2011 in astro-ph.CO | (1104.0488v1)

Abstract: We present J1145-0033, a candidate for the most distant (z=2.055) lobe-dominated giant radio quasar, with a projected linear size of 1.34 Mpc. This quasar has both FR II -- type radio morphology and broad absorption lines in its optical spectrum. Some physical characteristics (e.g. black hole mass, accretion rate, equipartition magnetic field, energy density and particle density of ambient medium) based on the optical and radio data are provided. We have also found that the quasar has a relatively large central black hole mass and a very small accretion rate in comparison with similar objects.
