What Do We Learn from Clustering of Galaxies and SMBHs at Cosmic Dawn?
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the clustering of galaxies and supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at cosmic dawn in this 35-minute conference talk by Peter Behroozi from the University of Arizona. Delivered as part of the "Cosmic Dawn Revealed by JWST: The Physics of the First Stars, Galaxies, and Black Holes" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, delve into the exciting discoveries made possible by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Examine how JWST observations of the first stars, galaxies, and black holes provide a unique "stress test" for new theoretical models of galaxy formation. Gain insights into the nature of stellar populations in early galaxies, their star formation and chemical enrichment histories, and the key physical processes shaping the evolution of these cosmic structures. Connect the findings from near-field and deep field observations to enhance understanding of the early universe and its formation.
