A massive quiescent galaxy at z=3.449 exhibits low rotation (λ_Re = 0.123) consistent with slow-rotator kinematics, indicating early formation of dispersion-dominated systems.
Extreme z>3 emission-line ratios are reproduced only by combining harder ionizing spectra, ionization parameters from massive star clusters, and enhanced nitrogen abundances.
Resolved JWST photometry reveals negative color gradients in three of four z>3 massive quiescent galaxies, and an age-only interpretation of these gradients eases—but does not remove—tensions with early-galaxy formation models.
Milky Way abundance trends act as effective empirical proxies for nucleosynthetic yields, recovering alpha and Fe-peak abundances in quiescent galaxies with 0.05 dex median offset versus 0.23 dex for theory, indicating largely universal yields.
Star formation histories inferred for z=2-5 massive quiescent galaxies imply past number densities that align with observed rapid evolution since z~7.
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.
A mission-proposal science book forecasting observational yields for a proposed JAXA 2–18 µm infrared space telescope; no new measurement or derivation is presented.
