Abstract

In theory, this age makes quasars suitable for probing time dilation in the early universe, but their unpredictable nature makes that difficult, unlike with supernovae. News TIME seems to have ticked more slowly when the universe was young, according to observations of ancient astronomical objects that appear to evolve at a fifth of the rate we see today. That is exactly what Lewis and Brewer did by analysing the data of 190 quasars. [Extracted from the article]
