Remarkably Compact Quiescent Candidates at 3 < z < 5 in JWST-CEERS

In this Letter, we measure the rest-frame optical and near-infrared sizes of 10 quiescent candidates at 3 < z < 5, first reported by Carnall et al. We use James Webb Space Telescope Near-Infrared Camera F277W and F444W imaging obtained through the public CEERS Early Release Science program and...
