Difference between Blazar and Outline of galaxies

Blazar vs. Outline of galaxies

A blazar is a very compact quasar (quasi-stellar radio source) associated with a presumed supermassive black hole at the center of an active, giant elliptical galaxy. The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to galaxies: Galaxies – gravitationally bound systems of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, and dark matter.

Similarities between Blazar and Outline of galaxies

Blazar and Outline of galaxies have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Active galactic nucleus, Astrophysics, Elliptical galaxy, Extragalactic astronomy, Quasar, Seyfert galaxy, Supermassive black hole.

Active galactic nucleus

An active galactic nucleus (AGN) is a compact region at the center of a galaxy that has a much higher than normal luminosity over at least some portion—and possibly all—of the electromagnetic spectrum, with characteristics indicating that the excess luminosity is not produced by stars.

Astrophysics

Astrophysics is the branch of astronomy that employs the principles of physics and chemistry "to ascertain the nature of the astronomical objects, rather than their positions or motions in space".

Supermassive black hole

A supermassive black hole (SMBH or SBH) is the largest type of black hole, on the order of hundreds of thousands to billions of solar masses, and is found in the centre of almost all currently known massive galaxies.
