The "International Max Planck Research School for Astronomy & Cosmic Physics at the University of Heidelberg" (IMPRS-HD) announces the 18th Heidelberg Summer School. Topic is Unraveling Galaxy Evolution with JWST.
September 4 - 8, 2023
IMPRS Heidelberg invites early-career scientists to its 18th summer school.
The 2023 Heidelberg Summer School will focus on the most relevant aspects of galaxy evolution addressed by JWST, from nearby to the most distant galaxies. JWST revealed surprises from its first images and is already revolutionizing many fields of astrophysics.
The school will give the participants an overview of what we have learned about galaxy evolution in the first year of JWST observations, the emerging challenges, and the opportunity to work with JWST data guided by world-renowned experts.
The topics include an overview of JWST, the physics of nearby galaxies, the role of AGN feedback, the cosmic noon, and the high-z Universe. The lectures will be accompanied by hands-on sessions and talks highlighting recent scientific results.
Invited lecturers are:
Steve Finkelstein (Univ. Texas Austin)
Adam Leroy (Ohio State Univ.)
Nora Lützgendorf (ESA)
Alice Shapley (UCLA)
Andrey Vayner (Johns Hopkins Univ.)
Hands-on session tutors are:
James Davies (MPIA)
Oleg Egorov (ARI)
The school SOC is:
E.Banados (MPIA), L.Boogaard (MPIA), F.Davies (MPIA), A.de Graaff (MPIA), I.Momcheva (MPIA), N.Neumayer (MPIA), D.Wylezalek (ZAH)
Deadline for applications is June 15, 2023.
