Dear Colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention to the upcoming session, E1.11, titled "Coevolution between high-redshift quasars and galaxies in the era of JWST",
scheduled to take place during the 45th COSPAR scientific assembly in Busan, Korea, from July 13 to 21, 2024.
Session description:
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has recently made groundbreaking discoveries that sparked a revolution in our understanding of the distant universe, the early assembly of galaxies, and the genesis of supermassive black holes (SMBHs). The discoveries not only challenge well-established theoretical frameworks on cosmic structure formation, but also offer pivotal insights that could reshape the foundation of these models. The findings by JWST, coupled with ongoing multi-wavelength efforts by such as ALMA, play an essential role in determining the initial conditions of SMBH-galaxy coevolution throughout cosmic history and shed light on how the empirical correlations seen in the nearby universe have been established. In this session, our primary goal is to convene experts from diverse observational and theoretical backgrounds to interpret the first results from the JWST cycle1 and 2 observations. That will stimulate discussion among astronomers in the related fields, fostering the development of innovative ideas in preparation for the future JWST observations and large projects such as Euclid and Nancy Grace Roman Space telescope.
We would like to invite you to submit an abstract for a contributed talk.
