ABSTRACT We present an analysis of the ultraviolet (UV) continuum slopes (β) for a sample of 172 galaxy candidates at 8 < zphot < 16 selected from a combination of JWST NIRCam imaging and COSMOS/UltraVISTA ground-based near-infrared imaging. Focusing primarily on a new sample of 121 galaxies at 〈z〉 ≃ 11 selected from ≃ 320 arcmin2 of public JWST imaging data across 15 independent data sets, we investigate the evolution of β in the galaxy population at z ≥ 9. We find a significant trend between β and redshift, with the inverse-variance weighted mean UV slope evolving from 〈β〉 = −2.17 ± 0.06 at z = 9.5 to 〈β〉 = −2.59 ± 0.06 at z = 11.5. Based on a comparison with stellar population models including nebular continuum emission, we find that at z > 10.5 the average UV continuum slope is consistent with the intrinsic blue limit of dust-free stellar populations (βint ≃ −2.6). These results suggest that the moderately dust-reddened galaxy population at z < 10 was essentially unattenuated at z ≃ 11. The extremely blue galaxies being uncovered at z > 10 place important constraints on dust attenuation in galaxies in the early Universe, and imply that the already observed galaxy population is likely supplying an ionizing photon budget capable of maintaining ionized intergalactic medium fractions of ≳ 5 per cent at z ≃ 11.
