Discovery of a Unique Close Quasar–DSFG Pair Linked by a [C II] Bridge at z = 5.63
Abstract
We report the discovery of a unique quasar-dusty star-forming galaxy (DSFG) system at z = 5.63, consisting of the bright quasar J1133+1603 (MUV = ‑ 27.42) and its compact, dust-obscured companion, J1133c. ALMA observations reveal a prominent [C II] bridge connecting the quasar and DSFG, indicating ongoing interaction at a projected separation of 1
