Difference between Absolute magnitude and Quasar

Absolute magnitude vs. Quasar

Absolute magnitude is a measure of the luminosity of a celestial object, on a logarithmic astronomical magnitude scale. A quasar (also known as a QSO or quasi-stellar object) is an extremely luminous active galactic nucleus (AGN).

Similarities between Absolute magnitude and Quasar

Absolute magnitude and Quasar have 16 things in common (in Unionpedia): Absolute magnitude, Apparent magnitude, Cosmic dust, Electromagnetic radiation, Extinction (astronomy), General relativity, Hubble's law, Light-year, Luminosity, Milky Way, Minute and second of arc, Nebula, Solar System, Sun, Watt, Wavelength.

Electromagnetic radiation

In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space-time, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy.
