The Franco-Indian school on 'From reionization to large scale structure - a multiwavelength approach' aims to review major recent achievements with theoretical, simulation and observational results on a wide range of extragalactic astrophysical contexts such as Epoch of Reionization (EOR), Cosmology with emission and absorption lines (21-cm redshifted, CO, H-alpha, Ly-alpha etc.), Ly-alpha galaxies at high redshift, gravitational lensing, non-thermal and CO-emission in cluster of galaxies and feedback, nearby galaxies, Giant radio galaxies, AGNs, etc.
The purpose of the school is to foster discussion between theoreticians and observers, about all aspects of multiwavelength surveys (radio/IR/Optical/X-ray) with the current generation (GMRT, LOFAR, VLA, IRAM, ALMA, MUSE/VLT/ESO, HST) or upcoming ground (NenuFAR, SKA, ELT) and space-based (JWST) facilities, mainly focusing on their cosmological implications. The new upcoming observing facilities will map the large scale structure of the Universe with unprecedented accuracy and reveal the detailed expansion and growth history by answering important cosmology questions like: Formation and evolution of galaxies during EOR? How are the large scale structures (cluster, filaments, giant galaxies) formed in the Universe starting from the reionization era? Impact of dark matter on the growth of large scale structure and their galaxy population? Cold gas and star formation activity, feedback in galaxy cluster, gravitational lensing in cluster, etc.
This school is the 3rd of a series of Franco-Indian schools supported by LabEx/LIO - CRAL (Lyon, France) and DST - IUCAA (Pune, India). This school is mainly supported by Indo-French Centre for the Promotion of Advanced Research (IFCPAR/CEFIPRA) and will provide a week of lectures and tutorials on cosmology and extragalactic science.
The topics covered by the lectures/tutorials will include:
- Reinonization to large scale structure in the Universe using imaging, spectral line and simulation techniques
- Formation and evolution of galaxies
- Low frequency (GMRT/LOFAR), high frequency (ALMA/IRAM) and optical (VLT) properties of galaxies and clusters
- Derive information and interpret results from astronomical data
The upcoming ground (NenuFAR, SKA, ELT) and space-based (JWST) observing facilities will be also discussed during the lecture session.
The school is limited to 30 participants due to logistical reasons. The interested participants are encouraged to proceed with the online registration as soon as possible.
