abstract
We present the early data release (EDR) of SAPPHIRES, a JWST Cycle-3 Treasury imaging and spectroscopic survey using the powerful NIRCam wide-field slitless spectroscopic (WFSS) mode in pure parallel. SAPPHIRES will obtain NIRCam imaging and WFSS data in many cosmological deep fields totaling a telescope charged time of 709 hours (557-hour exposures). In this EDR, we present NIRCam imaging and WFSS data obtained in parallel to the Frontier Field galaxy cluster MACS J0416.1-2403, which are attached to primary observations JWST-GO-4750. With a total dual-channel exposure time of 47.2 hours, we obtain deep NIRCam imaging in 13 bands at 0.6--5.0 micron and deep WFSS at 3.1-5.0 micron through the F356W and F444W filters with grisms in orthogonal dispersion directions. We release reduced NIRCam images, photometric catalogs of 22107 sources and WFSS spectra of 1060 sources with confirmed redshifts ($z\simeq0-8.5$). Preliminary value-added catalogs including photometric redshifts, spectroscopic redshifts and physical properties (mass, star-formation rate, etc.) are also made available. We also characterize the data quality and demonstrate scientific applications, including (1) galaxy candidates at the redshift frontier ($z\gtrsim10$), (2) the ionized gas kinematics of a galaxy reconstructed from $R\sim1500$ grism spectra at orthogonal dispersion directions, (3) massive emission-line galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGN) around the Epoch of Reionization.

EIGER VII. The evolving relationship between galaxies and the intergalactic medium in the final stages of reionization
Galaxies and intergalactic transmission switch from anti-correlated at z<5.5 to positively correlated at 5.7<z<6.15, indicating galaxy-driven, inside-out reionization.

The Identification of Two JWST/NIRCam-Dark Starburst Galaxies at $z=6.6$ with ALMA
Two ALMA-detected, JWST/NIRCam-dark starburst galaxies at z=6.6 are presented as viable progenitors of massive quiescent galaxies at z>4, with a poorly constrained number density between 10^-8.1 and 10^-5.5 Mpc^-3.
