Jordan Iga - An Introduction to Galactic Dynamics
Galaxies are the fundamental building blocks of the universe. When imaged with telescopes, we’re provided with numerous breathtaking images often featuring features such as spiral arms and galactic bars. In the 1960s, mathematicians became interested in studying how such structures formed within galaxies, and this gave birth to the field of galactic dynamics. I will introduce the field as a whole, as well as discussing my own work on the response of stellar discs.
All welcome.
