Galaxy evolution in high definition with the world's largest telescopes

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This project aims to determine where, when, and how galaxies formed their stars in the key epoch spanning the first four billion years of the Universe’s history. Astronomy has entered a new era with the Atacama Large Millimetre Array (ALMA) and James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the most powerful telescopes ever built. Together, they provide the sharpest and most complete view of distant, young galaxies ever achieved. This project will use cutting-edge ALMA and JWST observations to produce high-definition maps of the physical parameters of young galaxies through innovative analysis techniques. The project will enhance Australia's standing in astrophysical research, while inspiring the next generation of STEM students and workers.
