Professor Phil Bull – Chaos at Cosmic Dawn
£8
19:30 – 21:00
A brand-new Lovell Lecture at Jodrell Bank.
Chaos at Cosmic Dawn: Where did the first stars and galaxies come from?
Powerful new telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) are allowing us to peer further back in cosmic time than ever before. We can now see back to the infancy of our Universe, when the very first stars and galaxies formed. All is not well at “Cosmic Dawn” however — from black holes that are too big, to intergalactic gas that’s too cold, to “little red dots”, I will take you on a tour of some of the puzzling observations that are overturning our understanding of the early years of the cosmos.
