An X-Ray Significantly Variable, Luminous, Type 2 Quasar at z = 2.99 with a Massive Host Galaxy

We present a comprehensive X-ray analysis and spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting of WISEA J171419.96+602724.6, an extremely luminous type 2 quasar at z = 2.99. The source was suggested as a candidate Compton-thick (column density N _H > 1.5×10 ^24 cm ^−2 ) quasar by a short XMM-Newton obs...
