76 N/O-enhanced galaxies at 4<z<8.5 are observed shortly after starbursts, either in the WR enrichment phase within 10 Myr or the AGB phase after 30-40 Myr following outflows.
Direct [OIII]4364-based metallicities show that galaxies with stellar masses 10^6.7-9 solar masses at z~6-8 are 0.3-0.5 dex more metal-poor than local galaxies of the same mass, with slope 0.25 and 0.2 dex scatter.
New stack-based strong-line calibrations from ~1500 spectra yield mass-metallicity relations at z=1-10 with decreasing metallicity toward higher redshift and no slope change, plus 50 EMPG candidates at 1-4% solar metallicity showing large scatter and opposite sSFR trends.
NEFERTITI simulations show that the Milky Way's most metal-poor stars largely come from a handful of accreted massive dwarf galaxies, while reproducing the JWST Hebe galaxy at z~11 as a pure Population III system.
High-redshift HeII emitter observations confirm a >50% PopIII stellar mass fraction and favor top-heavy IMFs for the first stars with total masses 2e4 to 6e5 solar masses.
Identification of a strongly lensed ultra-faint galaxy at z≈10 with F200W excess, interpreted via SED modeling as either an extremely metal-poor stellar population or a young high-ionization system with emission lines.
Lumina runs a 500 cMpc radiation-hydrodynamic simulation combining IllustrisTNG galaxy formation with six-bin M1 radiation transport to predict late stellar-driven HI reionization ending around z=4.75 and AGN-driven HeII reionization nearly complete by z=3.
LRDs require Compton-thick gas at moderate metallicity plus high accretion rates producing weak X-rays to explain their non-detection, implying they are not chemically pristine.
Semi-numerical simulations plus Fisher analysis show that REACH-like observations of the 21-cm global signal can place meaningful constraints on the mass and star-formation efficiency of Population III stars.
An updated strong lensing model of SDSSJ1110+6459 using JWST-resolved clumps yields M(<250 kpc) = 1.21^{+0.09}_{-0.04} imes 10^{14} M_/sun, heta_E = 10.8^{+0.3}_{-0.4} arcsec, and \mu_tot = 24.2^{+3.4}_{-1.2} with 2-8 imes better magnification precision than prior models.
