Abstract The assumption that galaxies and massive black holes were both created in an early cosmological era, and allowing that quasars had to be made in their collisions, is tested comparing this theory with the observational data on the distribution of number of quasars N with respect to the cosmological redshift Z . The theoretical model is sensitive to Z c ‐value of redshift at creational time, Z m ‐value(s) of redshift at peak(s) of the distribution N ( Z ) and λ ‐ the decay constant of quasars. The peaks of distribution N ( Z ) are connected with the peaks in the mass spectrum of galaxies.
