[edit]DescriptionSpectrum of gas disc in active galaxy M87 (opo9423b).tiff |
English: A schematic diagram of velocity measurements of a rotating disk of hot gas in the core of active galaxy M87.The measurement was made by studying how the light from the disk is redshifted and blueshifted -- as part of the swirling disk spins in earth's direction and the other side spins away from earth. |
