Scientific paper

In an area roughly 20°×70° on the sky, there exists an excess of bright, high-redshift quasars. Quasars with this distribution of apparent magnitude and redshift have a negligible chance of being drawn from the population of quasars present in other areas of the sky. At a mean redshift distance corresponding to their average z ≈ 2, these quasars would represent an unprecedented inhomogeneity over enormous volumes of space in the universe.
