High-resolution zoom-in simulation of a z~10 galaxy produces over 10^5 star clusters with scale-free mass function, 90% of star formation in clusters, global SFE 0.2-0.3, and reproduces JWST super-bright galaxies via feedback-free bursts.
Lyα radiation pressure mildly reduces gas-to-star conversion efficiency in dense high-redshift clusters while dominating the launch of rapid outflows.
Bursty stellar feedback produces systematically flatter metallicity gradients than smooth feedback in high-redshift galaxies across multiple simulation suites.
FIRE-2 simulations find metallicity gradients in EoR galaxies flatten from median -0.15 dex/kpc at z~10 to -0.1 at z~6, with positive correlations to stellar mass and gas flow proxy Δv/2σ and links to central SFR density.
Simulations show observationally selected protocluster candidates at z ≳ 5 include significant interlopers, undergo 2-6 major mergers, and exhibit stronger clustering than observed, requiring total galaxy mass within 10 cMpc for reliable progenitor identification.
BonFIRE and CampFIRE simulations show bursty clustered star formation in early galaxies and predict UV luminosity functions matching observations at faint magnitudes with a turnover at M_UV approx -14 but overpredicting brighter galaxies.
At z>9, the UV-bright galaxy excess can be explained by supernova-produced dust with low FUV opacity (κ≈10^3–10^4 cm^2/g) plus porous geometry and modest star-formation efficiency evolution.
COLIBRE simulations underpredict bright-end UV galaxy luminosities by 1 to 2.5 magnitudes at z=7-15 compared with observations, with the discrepancy persisting after dust attenuation and uncertainty accounting.
JADES DR5 delivers 2081 z_phot > 8 galaxy candidates with UV slope trends, morphological evidence of clumpy growth, and improved photo-z methods tested on a spectroscopic subsample.
Strong-feedback models with bright galaxies match JWST UVLF at z greater than or equal to 10 and predict an extended reionization from z approximately 16 to 6 that fits CMB optical depth within 2 sigma.
Shorter star formation timescales in a semi-analytical UV LF model explain the slow evolution observed by JWST at z>10 without requiring changes in star formation efficiency.
Renaissance Simulations produce galaxies at z>10 whose stellar masses, star formation rates, sizes, and colors overlap with JWST observations while extending to lower masses.
Simulations show that bursty supernova feedback produces fewer bright [OIII] emitters by z=5 than smooth feedback due to less effective metal enrichment, while [OIII] traces shock-heated and radiatively ionized gas.
