Flux-density measurements of the high-redshift blazar PSO J047.4478+27.2992 at 4.7 and 8.2 GHz with RATAN-600

Abstract: We report the first detection at 4.7 and 8.2 GHz with the RATAN-600 radio telescope of the source PSO J047.4478+27.2992, which has been announced as a blazar at z = 6.1. The average flux densities are 12 ± 3 and 8 ± 4 mJy at 4.7 and 8.2 GHz respectively, and an upper limit is estimated as 3 mJy at 11.2 GHz. The light curve at 4.7 GHz, obtained on a time-scale of four months, exhibits moderate variability of the source (fractional variability Fvar = 0.28 ± 0.02). The new RATAN-600 measurements extend previous l… Show more

“…The radio spectrum of J0309+2717 is flat with a spectral index α = −0.53 ± 0.02 at frequencies from 0.147 GHz to 8.2 GHz (see Fig. 2, Ighina et al 2022;Mufakharov et al 2021). J0309+2717 has the brightest 250 GHz continuum emission in our sample (F cont = 4.39 ± 0.15 mJy) and the second brightest [CII] line emission (F [CII] = 2.6 ± 0.2 Jy km s −1 ).…”

“…Therefore, PSO J191+86 could be a GPS object with the young relativistic jets oriented toward our line of sight. This is not uncommon at high-z, because the blazar Q0906+6930 (Romani et al 2004) at z=5.47 shows a clearly peaked radio spectrum (e.g., Coppejans et al 2017;Mufakharov et al 2021) with a turnover frequency of 6.4 GHz (observed frame), but, at the same time, Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) data found evidence of Doppler boosting (e.g., An et al 2020). These results suggest that J0906+6930 is a GPS source likely oriented toward the observer.…”

“…We observed two comparison samples of quasars at z 3 (S1.4 GHz 100 mJy) and z 4 (S1.4 GHz 20 mJy) in 2017-2021 and revealed that the peaked spectrum is a common feature for them, almost half of the objects had the observed maximum in their radio spectra at the GHz frequencies (Sotnikova et al 2021). Using the RATAN measurements (Mufakharov et al 2021), we defined the newly discovered most distant blazar PSO J047.4478+27.2992 at z = 6.1 Belladitta et al (2020) as an MPS candidate. Comparison with the other distant blazars at z > 5 (J1026+25, J0906+69, and J1648+46) revealed the PS for three out of four of them.…”
