Reference excerpt

SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 also known as SAGA DR3 916076200000001062, is a radio galaxy located in the constellation of Ursa Major. The redshift of the galaxy has been estimated to be (z) 0.296.

Description SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 is the brightest cluster galaxy of the WHL J114033.7+563928 galaxy cluster belonging to a supercluster with 54 confirmed galaxy member candidates. Its R-band magnitude is 17.59 while its absolute magnitude is -23.43. The host is classified as an elliptical galaxy with a g–r color magnitude of 1.67 and a total surface brightness of 20.735 magnitude per arcsecond square based on DESI Legacy Surveys imaging. The axis ratio of the host galaxy is 0.650 and the position angle is -58.596°. The total stellar mass has been calculated as 12.66 M☉. The central nucleus is active and has been categorized as a non-bent compact radio galaxy with an estimated flux density of 21.00 mJy by the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS). The radio morphology is elongated, mainly described by a single elliptical profile component, although radio imaging by Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-Centimeters (FIRST) suggested a compact morphology, described by a single point-like component. There is a radio core, with the core flux density estimated as 20.59 mJy, and the radio emission flux density is 20.80 mJy. The total radio power is 5.89 × 1024 WHz−1.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with SDSS J114033.75+563927.8

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of SDSS J114033.75+563927.8

In research: SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Active galaxies, Elliptical galaxies, LEDA objects, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for SDSS J114033.75+563927.8 outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
