Galaxies and the Universe

Catalog description

This course offers an overview of the fundamental physical processes shaping the large-scale structure of the universe, with an emphasis on galaxy morphology, dynamics, and evolution. Topics include galaxy formation, stellar feedback, the role of supermassive black holes, the influence of dark matter, and the impact of galactic mergers and gas accretion. Through a combination of observational evidence and theoretical frameworks, we will explore the development of galaxies across cosmic time, integrating key insights from both astrophysical and cosmological perspectives.
