Caption
The Loktak Protocluster Region. A false-color composite image combining observations from the Hubble Space Telescope and JWST. White dots mark galaxies identified by the Subaru Telescope, while orange shading indicate regions where galaxies are densely concentrated. Colored contours show galaxy number density relative to the cosmic average at that time: 2 times (pink), 5 times (green), 8 times (blue), and 10 times (black). The white dashed line outlines the full extent of the Loktak Protocluster. The close-up images in the red and blue boxes show examples of galaxies in dense environments (red boxes) and in typical environments (blue boxes).
