"ALMA Observes Ancient Quasar's Suppression of Star Formation"

TL;DR Summary
Researchers using the ALMA telescope have discovered the first evidence of a molecular gas outflow from a quasar in the early universe, providing confirmation of theoretical predictions. The outflow of molecular gas from the quasar J2054-0005 has been observed, revealing its role in suppressing star formation in its host galaxy. This finding sheds light on the impact of quasars on galaxy evolution at an early cosmic age, demonstrating their capability to eject molecular gas into intergalactic space and suppress star formation.
