Resolved HI observations of six baryon-dominated dwarf galaxy candidates show four are dark-matter deficient with high baryon efficiency, two in isolated environments without tidal signs.

abstract
We investigate the formation of molecular hydrogen (H_2) in a primordial H+He gas cloud irradiated by a power-law UV flux. We find that at high densities (>1 cm^{-3}) and low temperatures (<10^4 K), the background radiation enhances the formation of H_2 and results in molecular cooling dominating over photoionization heating. This process could accelerate the collapse and fragmentation of dense objects at high 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.
