Press <Control> plus;

N = New Window / T = New Tab (Same Window)

When I am on this forum, I have one window for the forum, and a second window in case I need it to check things like settings.

You can open a New Private Window and open the other page in that window. In private browsing mode you get a separate set of cookies that is shared among all private browsing mode tabs.
