MCG -01-24-014 is a barred spiral galaxy located 275 million light-years away in the Hydra constellation.[1][2][3] The galaxy contains an active nucleus and is considered to be classified as a type 2 Seyfert galaxy indicating the presence of a black hole in its center.[2][4][5]
This galaxy has been used as an example of a common subclass of active galactic nuclei between its class and quasars by Hubble astronomers.[5] While Seyfert galaxies are nearer and less luminous, quasars on the other hand are much further and brighter. In addition, MCG -01-24-14 has a distinctive spectral line, which its light source is separated into different wavelengths and associated with forbidden emission. The root cause for this is the work of quantum mechanics, in which only certain electrons exists when there is specific energy which they either lose or gain momentum.[5]
Supernova[edit]
One supernova has been observed in MCG -01-24-014: on 15 February 2021, SN 2021dbg (type II, mag. 18.1) was discovered.[6][7]
