JWST data shows half-light radii larger than half-mass radii in galaxies at 0.2<z<2.5, with mass-dependent differences, steeper size-mass slopes for light, and faster mass-size growth for star-forming galaxies at high redshift.

Difference Between Half-mass Radius and Half-light Radius of Galaxies at 0.2 $< z <$ 2.5 Revealed by JWST/NIRCam Data

Morphological and Star Formation Properties of Cosmic Noon Massive Quiescent Galaxies
Massive quiescent galaxies at cosmic noon are compact and bulge-dominated with inside-out quenching, where inner regions formed stars ~0.5 Gyr earlier and quenched faster than outskirts.
