Earliest galaxies COFFEE/TEA Introductions Presentations (<30min/talk) Rychard Bouwens "The evolution of the cosmic ionising emissivity at z>6 and comparisons to new determinations of the galaxy UV luminosity density at z>6” Naveen Reddy "Dust Attenuation Curves and their Implications for High-Redshift Galaxies" Kirsten Knudsen “Submillimeter galaxies in the early universe” Earliest galaxies Discussion leader: Rychard Bouwens discussion topic ideas (1) High Ionization Fluxes from z>4 Galaxies: Do we understand the stellar populationsand hence SFRs of the earliest galaxies (2) Contribution of the Faint End of the LF to the SFR Density: What are some Challenges in Establishing the Faint End of the LF from the Hubble Frontier Fields Program (3) Intrinsically Luminous Galaxies at Very High Redshift: What are they and is their nature easily understood within standard galaxy formation models?

Structure of galaxies COFFEE/TEA Presentations (<30min/talk) Michele Cappellari "Mass and dynamics of galaxies out to their stellar halos" Eric Emsellem "From high to low luminosity early-type galaxies" Lucio Mayer "The physics of disk galaxy formation at high and low redshift; instabilities, feedback and stellar mass assembly histories" David Fiacconi "The development of galaxy morphology: a high-redshift perspective" Structure of galaxies Discussion leader: Lucio Mayer discussion topic ideas (1) What is different and what is not different in the mode of (disk) galaxy formation at high vs. low redshift,and what does that imply about star formation properties? (2) Which component traces best the early stellar assembly phase in disk galaxies? The bulge or the thick disk? What do they tell us in general about conditions of galaxy formation at hi-z? (3a) What is the dominant mechanism for the formation of bulges of spirals? (3b)How can we exploit bulge properties to constrain the effect of feedback(s) and the amount of star formation at high vs. low z? (4) Is there any evidence that AGN feedback plays an important role in the formation of spiral galaxies (eg bulge properties, SF history)? Or is it a second-order ingredient? (5) Clumpy galaxies at high-z; where are they today and which property of low-z galaxies carries the imprint of a past clumpy phase? COFFEE/TEA |

ISM, part I COFFEE/TEA Presentations (<30min/talk) Alexia Lewis "Challenges of studying the ISM on sub-kpc scales" Mei-Ling Huang "The variation in molecular gas depletion time among nearby galaxies" Kyle Penner "The assumptions we make when we study dust through attenuation" slides ISM, part I Discussion leader:Naveen Reddy discussion topic ideas (1) What do we learn by tracking the concomitant evolution of dust mass and stellar metallicity? (2) What is the fraction of metals in the gas vs. locked into dust grains? COFFEE/TEA |
