A "Genetic" approach to constraining the assembly of the Milky Way

Event Start:
2021-11-15T15:00:00
Event End:
2021-11-15T16:00:00
Event Information:

The galaxy population in the universe is immutably linked to its cosmology. The characteristics of galaxies are genetic traits which are set, in a large part, by the `DNA' defined by density fluctuations in the early universe, which govern the eventual mass assembly of galaxies. Large scale surveys in the Milky Way such as Gaia, APOGEE and GALAH, among others, have revealed new and intriguing `traits' of the Milky Way.
