"The 9th Galaxy Evolution Workshop"

[Schedule]

Date: 2023 February 20 (Mon) - 23 (Thu)

Location: Kyoto University Science Seminar House + online (zoom)

Web: https://events.asiaa.sinica.edu.tw/workshop/20230220/index.php

Note1: we may switch to a 100% online if the pandemic situation gets significantly worse in Japan.

Note2: the number of on-site participant will be limited to ~80, depending on the pandemic situation in Japan. Only the registered people can enter the seminar house.

Note3: Poster presentation will be done in Slack.

[Scientific Rationale]

The field of galaxy evolution covers a wide range of astrophysical scales:

from the cosmic large-scale structure to the central black hole of the Milky Way.

This is a rapidly evolving field and thus it is important to understand astrophysical processes operating on various physical and time scales to draw a complete picture of galaxy evolution.

While a classical workshop focusing on some specific aspects of galaxies is already useful, a workshop with a broader scope, essentially on everything about galaxies, is highly complementary.

Motivated by this, we decided to hold a “Galaxy Evolution Workshop"

every year to improve

our understanding of the complex nature of galaxies and their evolution over the cosmic time.

In this year, we will hold an international in-person workshop, for the first time after the covid pandemic, in Kyoto University.

The goals of the workshop are:

     • to present and discuss new results

     • to discuss what the next steps will be

This 9th workshop is jointly hosted by Japan, Taiwan, and Korea communities, to spark cooperations among East-Asia.

We very much appreciate presentations (both oral and poster) by young postdocs and students.

Any presentations related to galaxies (from the Milky Way to the most distant galaxies) are welcome.

In addition to general science sessions, we will have a focused session.

This time our main theme is ‘Early Science with JWST’, which is undoubtedly the hottest topic this year.

We invite several keynote speakers to provide broad context reviews.

We also welcome contributed talks for this focused session.

We look forward to seeing you at the workshop!
