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.

An evolving star formation efficiency f_*(z) = 10^{0.13z-3.5} plus SNII-driven dust processes explain the UV LF at z=5-13, with galaxies retaining ~0.15% dust-to-stellar mass at z>9 and ALMA z=5-7 observations not representing the average population.

Hitting the slopes: A spectroscopic view of UV continuum slopes of galaxies reveals a reddening at z > 9.5

Exploring the interplay between star formation efficiency and dust in regulating the UV luminosity of early systems in the JWST and ALMA era
