Binary neutron star mergers with evolving merger rates or yields are strongly preferred over constant scenarios to explain Milky Way r-process enrichment, with Bayes factors exceeding 10^20, yet remain in tension with short gamma-ray burst observations.

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.
Isolated Population III binaries can form GW231123-like events if convective overshooting is inefficient, the carbon-alpha reaction rate is 2 sigma below standard, and initial orbits match those of later-generation binaries.
N-body models of young and old dense star clusters show BBH mergers span primary masses from ~6 to >100 solar masses with a peak near 8 solar masses, reproducing the LIGO-inferred distribution, with low-mass mergers mostly from metal-rich clusters.
High-significance measurement of EBL optical depth in 19 redshift bins from Fermi-LAT blazar spectra, consistent with existing models.

Mass Distribution of Binary Black Hole Mergers from Young and Old Dense Star Clusters
