Star clusters at cosmic dawn I: the emergence of the initial cluster mass function
JWST observations of lensed galaxies reveal unusually bright star-cluster candidates within the first billion years after the Big Bang. However, the physical processes shaping the initial cluster mass function (ICMF) remain uncertain. We study the formation of a galaxy embedded in a dark matter halo whose virial mass r...
