... 2000 April 19 . Redshift 5.8: A New Farthest Quasar . ... Explanation: The distance record for a quasar has been broken yet again. ... The recently discovered quasar has been clocked at redshift 5.82. The exact relation between redshift and distance remains presently unknown , although surely higher redshifts do mean greater distance. ... The redshifts to several other SDSS-discovered quasars are currently being measured, some of which might have redshifts greater than six. ... About APOD | ...

... Transforms a qpoe file according to the specified parameters. ... Any type of filtering can be applied to the input qpoe file, including region filtering. In addition, the size of the output event record can be different from the size of the input event record. Of course, usually one makes the output record equal to or smaller than the input. If the output record size is made greater than the input record, a warning is issued and the ``extra'' part of the record is undefined.) ...
