Dust grain size distributions evolve from large-grain dominated at high redshift to MRN-like at low redshift, driven primarily by shattering and ISM accretion after stars supply initial large grains, reproducing z=0 dust masses and Milky Way extinction properties.
Cosmological zoom-in simulations find that grain-grain shattering in diffuse ISM gas drives rising PAH mass fraction with time, naturally producing the observed PAH-metallicity relation and inverse qPAH-molecular gas trends.
GREX-PLUS is a proposed JAXA L-class mission with a 1m cooled telescope, wide-field 2-8um camera, and R=30000 spectrometer in 10-18um to enable studies of z>15 galaxies, protoplanetary snowlines, and related astrophysics.
