FORMER PROGRAMS

The Interstellar Medium of High Redshift Galaxies

9 April - 4 May 2018

Andrea Ferrara, Richard Ellis, Fabian Walter

Week 1 open

Galaxy Assembly

Key questions:

  • What drives the assembly history of early galaxies - mergers, accretion etc?
  • What are the prospects for charting the earliest galaxies?
  • How does the gaseous and dust content of galaxies evolve with time?
  • When and how do galaxies get enriched with heavy elements?
  • Can gas kinematics be used to reliably measure dynamical masses?

Week 2 open

ISM Structure & Reionization

Key questions:

  • Are there standard ISM phases (molecular, neutral, ionized, shock-heated)?
  • What controls them?
  • Under what conditions is the ISM sufficiently porous to permit leaking ionizing radiation?
  • What are the effects of dust and heavy elements on the visibility of distant systems?
  • What is the evolution of the mass-metallicity relation?

Feedbacks, Mass/Energy Outflows

Key questions:
