The James Webb Space Telescope is revolutionizing our understanding of the distant universe. A result has emerged that challenges our models: the extremely high efficiency of star formation in distant galaxies. However, this finding is derived indirectly: we measure the mass of stars in galaxies, not their star formation rate. This is the main weakness of the James Webb. The aim of this thesis is to remedy this weakness by using its angular resolution capacity, which has not been taken into account until now, in order to obtain a more robust measurement of the SFR of distant galaxies. We will deduce a law that will improve the robustness of SFR determination using morphological properties and combining data from the James Webb Space Telescope with data from ALMA (z=1-3). We will then apply it to the distant universe (z=3-6, part 2) and use it as a benchmark for numerical simulations (part 3).
