Discovery and characterization of the highest-redshift barred spiral galaxy candidate at z=5.102, with bar length ~4.5 kpc, stellar mass 10^10.45 solar masses, SFR 144 solar masses per year, and evidence for AGN and interaction.

JWST/NIRCam imaging and Keck/MOSDEF spectroscopy identify COSMOS-74706 as an unlensed barred spiral galaxy at z_spec=3.159, with the bar confirmed via residuals, ellipse fitting, and Fourier modes.
Detection of a stellar bar in the extreme gas-rich galaxy GN20 at z=4.055 shows that gas-rich disks support rapid bar formation in the early universe.
A new catalogue of bar lengths and widths from HST images of 8230 galaxies shows bars are about 13% weaker at higher redshift, with longer bars in higher-mass quiescent galaxies and trends consistent with slow quenching.
Barred galaxies transition from actively star-forming at z~1-2 to quiescent at z~0, with the fraction of quiescent galaxies hosting bars increasing steeply over cosmic time.
