The Puzzling Properties of the MACS1149-JD1 Galaxy at z = 9.11

We analyze new JWST NIRCam and NIRSpec data on the redshift 9.11 galaxy MACS1149-JD1 (hereafter JD1). Our NIRCam imaging data reveal that JD1 comprises three spatially distinct components. Our spectroscopic data indicate that JD1 appears dust free but is already enriched, $12+\mathrm{log}({\rm{O}}/{...
