An international research team led by scientists at Waseda University and Tohoku University has discovered an extraordinary quasar in the early universe that hosts one of the fastest-growing supermassive black holes known at this mass scale. Observations with the Subaru Telescope reveal a striking, rule-breaking combination: the quasar is undergoing extremely rapid accretion while simultaneously shining brightly in X-rays and producing strong radio emission from a jet—features that many theoretical models do not expect to coexist. This unexpected juxtaposition of phenomena offers a new perspective on how supermassive black holes grow in the early universe.
