Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Overview
Explore cutting-edge research on identifying high-redshift galaxy overdensities using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) in this 19-minute conference talk by Jake Helton 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 exploration of cosmic dawn and the latest discoveries made possible by JWST. Gain insights into the nature of first stars, galaxies, and black hole seeds, as well as the stellar populations of early galaxies. Examine the star formation and chemical enrichment histories of these ancient cosmic structures, and understand the key physical processes shaping their evolution. Connect the findings from near-field and deep field observations to build a comprehensive picture of the early universe.
