A Submillimeter Selected Quasar in the Field of Abell 478

Abstract

We report the discovery of a z=2.83 quasar in the field of the cooling flow galaxy cluster Abell 478. This quasar was first detected in a submm survey of star forming galaxies at high redshifts, as the brightest source. We discuss the optical spectrum and far-IR spectral energy distribution (SED) of this object.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, in "Deep Millimeter Surveys: Implications for Galaxy Formation and Evolution", ed.
