Funded Activity Summary

Stars and Galaxies: The chemical abundance breakthrough. Measuring the chemical history of galaxies is critical to understand how galaxies form and evolve. This program aims to address shortcomings in current methods used to measure elements in a novel approach that combines observations and state-of-the-art modelling. Expected outcomes include a model for the history of the elements as the theoretical basis to derive new, robust galaxy diagnostics. There are tremendous benefits as this research topic is a major science driver for the next generation of telescopes, such as the James Webb Space Telescope and the 25m Giant Magellan Telescope. Through this project, young Australians will be trained in the science and technology required to lead the ground-breaking astronomy research of the future.
