Molecular gas and dust around a radio-quiet quasar at redshift 4.7
read the original abstract
We report the detection of emission from dust and carbon monoxide in the radio-quiet quasar BR1202--0725 at redshift z=4.7. Maps of these emissions reveal two objects separated by a few arc seconds, which could indicate either the presence of a companion to the quasar or gravitational lensing of the quasar itself. Regardless of the precise interpretation of the maps, the detection of carbon monoxide confirms the presence of a large mass of molecular gas in one of the most distant galaxies known, and shows that conditions conducive to huge bursts of star formation existed in the early Universe.

Mass--size evolution and the emerging passive--density relation revealed by JWST/NIRCam in the Spiderweb protocluster
In the Spiderweb protocluster, passive fraction rises with local density to ~60% while passive mass–size intercepts sit between field and cluster values, indicating advanced quenching but ongoing size growth.
