On the stunning abundance of super-early, luminous galaxies revealed by <i>JWST</i>

The earliest JWST observations have revealed an unexpected abundance of super-early ($z>10$), massive ($M_*\approx 10^9\, M_\odot$) galaxies at the bright-end ($M_{\rm UV}\approx -21$) ultraviolet luminosity function (UV LF). We present a minimal physical model that explains observed galaxy $z=10-14$. primarily combines (a) halo mass function, with (b) obscured star formation fraction prescription is consistent findings ALMA REBELS dusty survey. It has been successfully tested on well-known UV LFs up to $z=7$. weak evolution from $z=7$ $z\approx 14$ LF arises conspiracy between decreasing dust attenuation, making brighter, almost exactly compensates for increasing shortage their host halos. also predicts $z > 11$ should contain negligible amounts dust. speculate could efficiently ejected during very first phases build-up.
