Pearls on a String: Dark and Bright Galaxies on a Strikingly Straight and Narrow Filament

Pearls on a String: Dark and Bright Galaxies on a Strikingly Straight and Narrow Filament

We identify a chain of galaxies along an almost straight line in the nearby Universe with a projected length of ~5 Mpc. The galaxies are distributed within projected distances of only 7–105 kpc from the axis of the identified filament. They have redshifts in a very small range of z = 0.0361−0.0370 s...
