Gas and Stars in the Teacup Quasar Looking with the 6-m Telescope
New results on the radio-quiet type 2 quasar, known as the Teacup galaxy (SDSSJ1430+1339), based on the long-slit and 3D spectroscopic data obtained at the Russian 6-m telescope, are presented. The ionized gas giant nebula, which extends up to <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3...
