Abstract

The recent discovery by JWST of massive galaxy candidates (M* ≈ 1011 M⊙) at z ≈ 10 (Labbé et al., 2023) presents a catastrophic failure for the Standard Model (ΛCDM), which predicts a mass reservoir ∼ 1000× smaller at this epoch. In this Letter, we resolve this crisis without invoking new particles or modifying Dark Energy. Using the Universal Tension-Driven Lattice (UTDL) framework, we demonstrate that the vacuum undergoes a phase transition from a high-impedance “Braking Mode” (Late Universe) to a high-conductance “Genesis Mode” (Early Universe). We derive the vacuum conductance from the Fine Structure Constant (σvac ∝ 1/√αfs ≈ 11.7), which acts as a superfluid accelerant for primordial accretion. Deterministic simulations show that this “Conductance Mode” generates a mass supply surplus of ∼ 2.0 dex, sufficient to pay the “Feedback Tax” of baryonic physics and naturally reproduce the “impossible” masses observed by JWST. This confirms the UTDL as a unified geometric solution to both the S8 Tension (Hardening) and the Early Galaxy Crisis (Softening).
