Title: Pieces to the puzzle of Galaxy Formation<br>
<br>
Abstract:<br>
The great debate on the nature of the nebulae will have its
100 years <br>
anniversary next year. In the course of those hundred years
we have come <br>
to understand galaxies as one of the most mind-boggling
phenomena in <br>
nature with a quantum mechanical origin reflecting
conditions in the <br>
Universe a tiny fraction of a second after the Big Bang. To
understand <br>
galaxies we need to involve all aspects of physics from
particle, <br>
atomic, molecular and solid stare physics. In this talk I
will discuss <br>
some of the pieces to the puzzle of galaxy formation, namely
how we can <br>
use sight-lines to quasars to probe the chemical evolution
of galaxies <br>
at look-back times of 10-13 Gyr. As part of this story I
will discuss <br>
the issue of dust bias and how new methods for selection of
quasars <br>
among point-sources on the sky can circumvent this bias.<br>
<br>
Upcoming events:<br>
29/11 (Fri) @ 10:30: Liisa Husu (Örebro University)<br>
(6/12 (Fri) Supervisor's meeting - full day)<br>
13/12 (Fri) @ 10:30: Stephen Justham (Amsterdam)<br>
