Molecular gas and star formation in galaxy interactions

Le 6 décembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Ute Lisenfeld Universidad de Granada  Galaxy interaction can affect strongly the star formation activity and the molecular gas content of galaxies. Frequently, interaction enhances both quantities, but this is not always the case. I will...

Recents news from supernova remnants in X- and gamma-rays

Le 29 novembre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Fabio Acero  CEA  The large amount of energy released in the supernova explosion leads to the creation of a fast shock wave which is an important source of cosmic-rays, kinetic and thermal energy in the interstellar medium. Supernovae are...

Why Modify Gravity?

Le 18 octobre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Jackson Said University of Malta   The standard model of cosmology has shown remarkable success in explaining cosmological observations in recent decades. This model consists of Einstein's theory of general relativity, the standard model of...

Galaxy evolution: a gas perspective

Le 11 octobre 2019 De 10h30 à 12h00 Jonathan Freundlich Hebrew University   Galaxy history is marked by a peak of star formation ten billion years ago and a subsequent drop of the star formation rate (SFR) by an order of magnitude. To understand this evolution, it is crucial...
