Abell 1835 ( A1835 ) is a galaxy cluster in the constellation Virgo , which is about 1000 megaparsecs away; it is a CD heap. Abell 1835 has a massive cooling flow and is one of the brightest known X-ray clusters (X-ray luminosity in the range from 2 to 10 keV: 4.5 · 10 45 erg · s −1 ).
Abell 1835 IR1916
In 2004 the discovery of a galaxy with a redshift of z = 10 was published as a gravitational lens with the help of Abell in 1835. According to these results, this galaxy with the designation Abell 1835 IR1916 would have been the most distant galaxy known to date. However, later investigations could not confirm this discovery.
