中文摘要
对新发现的南半球超微弱银河系卫星星系的科学开发将使澳大利亚成为这一快速发展的研究领域的领导者。它将通过访问国内和国际望远镜设施,如英澳望远镜(AAT)、双子座望远镜和麦哲伦望远镜,以及访问国家计算资源进行理论模拟来实现。国家利益也将从该团队与其超级科学研究员和海外机构的研究人员之间的合作中产生。该项目的成果将激励未来超大望远镜时代的研究计划,并将使研究员成为开发这些设施的科学潜力的潜在未来领导者。
英文摘要
The scientific exploitation of newly discovered southern hemisphere ultra-faint Milky Way satellite galaxies will make Australia a leader in this rapidly developing research field. It will be enabled by access to national and international telescope facilities such as the Anglo- Australian Telescope (AAT), Gemini and Magellan, and by access to national computing resources for theoretical simulations. National benefit will also flow from collaborations between the team and its Super Science Fellows and researchers at overseas institutions. Results from the project will motivate research programs for the coming era of extremely large telescopes and will position the Fellows as potential future leaders in the exploiting the scientific potential of those facilities.
