Interestingly, this is the first confirmed case of two merging quasars in the Cosmic Dawn era of the Universe.
The Cosmic Dawn period saw the birth of the first stars and galaxies, filling the previously dark universe with light.
This period, called Cosmic Dawn, saw the birth of the first stars and galaxies, filling the previously dark universe with light. It was also when these young galaxies were more likely to bump into each other and merge. “While screening images of quasar candidates I noticed two similarly and extremely red sources next to each other. The discovery was purely serendipitous,” said Yoshiki Matsuoka, an astronomer at Ehime University in Japan and lead author. After the Big Bang, the universe was just a fraction of its current size. The galaxies were much closer together in the early universe. With closer proximity, galaxies were more likely to collide and merge due to gravitational forces.
Interestingly, this is the first confirmed case of two merging quasars in the Cosmic Dawn. The Cosmic Dawn began around 50 million years ago and continued up to one billion years after the Big Bang. During this timeframe, the young universe witnessed the formation of the first stars and galaxies.
