JWST spectroscopy of 295 galaxies at 5.5 < z < 14.3 shows UV slope beta reddening at z > 9.5, with lack of dust as the main driver of bluer values and nebular continuum at T > 15,000 K able to reproduce the observed range without dust.
A Pop III.1-driven early ionization phase at z=20 yields τ=0.087 consistent with pkSZ and Lyα constraints, potentially resolving BAO-CMB tensions on neutrino mass.
The low-mass IMF in Boötes I is consistent with the Milky Way within 68% confidence for broken power-law and lognormal forms, indicating universality at low metallicity.
Lyα radiation pressure mildly reduces gas-to-star conversion efficiency in dense high-redshift clusters while dominating the launch of rapid outflows.
A transition to low-opacity SNe-produced dust at z>9 reproduces the observed low attenuation and UV luminosity function excess in early galaxies.
High-redshift HeII emitter observations confirm a >50% PopIII stellar mass fraction and favor top-heavy IMFs for the first stars with total masses 2e4 to 6e5 solar masses.
A pair-instability supernova from a 250-260 solar mass Population III star at z≈15 matches the brightness, variability, photometry, and spectrum of the JWST source Capotauro.
Quiescent galaxies cluster more strongly than star-forming ones by 0.5-1 dex after halo-mass matching, with one-halo conformity up to z~2 that disappears at higher redshifts.
Cosmological hydrodynamical simulations predict that UV diversity in Little Red Dots encodes direct-collapse black hole ages via a rapid transition from BH- to stellar-dominated emission after ~30 Myr.
BonFIRE and CampFIRE simulations show bursty clustered star formation in early galaxies and predict UV luminosity functions matching observations at faint magnitudes with a turnover at M_UV approx -14 but overpredicting brighter galaxies.
Lumina runs a 500 cMpc radiation-hydrodynamic simulation combining IllustrisTNG galaxy formation with six-bin M1 radiation transport to predict late stellar-driven HI reionization ending around z=4.75 and AGN-driven HeII reionization nearly complete by z=3.
Semi-numerical simulations plus Fisher analysis show that REACH-like observations of the 21-cm global signal can place meaningful constraints on the mass and star-formation efficiency of Population III stars.
Small-scale power spectrum boosts alter ionization morphology enough that 21 cm power spectra and bubble sizes remain distinguishable from Lambda CDM under current constraints, offering SKA a probe for such deviations.
Intermediate-mass black holes acting as permanent matter sinks, combined with updated cosmic star formation rates and primordial baryon accretion, reduce the overpredicted CNO abundances from Population III stars to match observations in z~3-6 quasar absorption systems.
A review of theoretical models for the first stars and observational strategies including JWST searches, near-field studies, and lensing, noting growing candidates and narrowing parameter space.
A review chapter summarizing theoretical 21-cm signatures from Cosmic Dawn and Reionization and their detectability with SKA-Low.
