An international team of researchers, including scientists from The University of Tokyo’s Kavli Institute for the Physics and Mathematics of the Universe, has discovered evidence suggesting that old elliptical galaxies may form through intense star formation in the cores of early galaxies. This groundbreaking finding, based on data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA), offers new insights into the evolution of galaxies in the early Universe and improves our understanding of their formation processes.
