  • The surprising JWST discovery of a quiescent, low-mass (M = 10^8.7M*) galaxy at redshift z = 7.3 (JADES-GS-z7-01-QU) represents a unique opportunity to study the imprint of feedback processes on early galaxy evolution
  • They compare to simulated quiescent galaxies from the SERRA simulations
  • By studying the SFH, they find that the observed abrupt quenching must be caused by radiation-driven winds, which are fast, instead of SNe which would take longer
