  • Dolorous_Edd by Dolorous_Edd

    Host appears to be SDSS J162807.68+131917.4 nothing unusual
    except wierd "appendix" SDSS J162807.56+131910.8

    Chance alignment of galaxies?

    ph_z is different for both galaxies, yet there is warning about colors

    z_ph 0.128±0.0299/0.113±0.0294 SDSS J162807.68+131917.4, in the center, looks to me like the late stage of a merger. If we had a spectrum, I expect it may show "post-quenched" characteristics. Alternatively, the green plume to the S could be an EELR (extended emission line region; a.k.a. voorwerpje):

    Is there a doublelobe too? To the SE there's an unmistakable FIRST source; the the NW just noise?

    The image in this post was created from sources, and using methods, described in this RGZ Talk post. The object at the center of the image is SDSS J162807.68+131917.4.
