Funded Activity Summary

Formation and Evolution in the Extragalactic Universe. Understanding the formation and evolution of galaxies, quasars and clusters of galaxies remains one of the key challenges in modern cosmology. We will bring together a wide range of skills to focus on specific aspects of this problem. Major topics we will consider include: how the gas and galaxies in clusters affect one another as they evolve; how quasars are formed and evolve; how ordinary matter and dark matter are distributed in galaxies and clusters; and finally, when galaxies were formed.
