Galaxies at redshifts 5 to 6 with systematically low dust content and high [C II] emission

TL;DR: It is found that nine typical star-forming galaxies about one billion years after the Big Bang have thermal emission that is less than 1/12 that of similar systems about two billion years later, and enhanced [C ii] emission relative to the far-infrared continuum, confirming a strong evolution in the properties of the interstellar medium in the early Universe.

The Interstellar Medium In Galaxies Seen A Billion Years After The Big Bang

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the [CII] gas and dust emission in 9 typical (~1-4L*) star-forming galaxies and found that these galaxies have >12x less thermal emission compared with similar systems ~2 billion years later, confirming a strong evolution in the interstellar medium properties in the early universe.
