Dark stars could help solve three pressing puzzles of the high-redshift universe
A recent study provides answers to three seemingly disparate yet pressing cosmic dawn puzzles. Specifically, the authors show how dark stars could help explain the unexpected discovery of "blue monster" galaxies, the numerous early overmassive black hole galaxies, and the "little red dots" in images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
