From cosmic web to molecular clouds: the multiple scales of galaxy evolution
The interstellar medium plays a central role in the galaxy evolution process; it is the reservoir that fuels galaxy growth via star formation, the repository of material formed by these stars, and a sensitive tracer of internal and external processes that affect entire galaxies (e.g. accretion and feedback). This overview talk will discuss how observations of the interstellar medium are sheddin...

Strong lensing studies with Euclid
Strong gravitational lensing is a powerful tool for astrophysics and cosmology. I will present the Euclid Collaboration's current lens-finding efforts, including the "lens-finding engine" in Euclid's Quick Release 1, and the project I lead on double-source-plane lenses (DSPLs). DSPLs—systems with two Einstein rings at different source redshifts—are uniquely valuable for both cosmological dist...

The Population of LISA MBHBs: What we have learned from simulations
Massive black holes (MBHs) are found in the centres of most massive galaxies. When two galaxies merge, their respective MBHs are brought together, some of them will eventually coalesce and become powerful sources of gravitational waves (GWs). The detection of GWs from stellar-mass black hole binaries by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) marked the dawn of the ..

What drove the lunar dynamo?
Although the Moon today has no global magnetic field, paleomagnetic measurements of Apollo samples indicate the existence of an ancient field from at least 4.25 to 1.92 billion years ago. It has been proposed that the paleofield was generated by a core dynamo. However, the paleofield’s apparent high intensity and longevity are major challenges to current theory. Three key difficulties have bee...

Cosmological Constraints from the Measurements of Baryon Acoustic Oscillations using Lyman alpha forests from DESI and CSST
The Baryon Acoustic Oscillations (BAO) is a powerful large-scale structure probe that is used to constrain dark energy models, and is the main goal of the latest large cosmology survey, eBOSS and Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). I will present DESI second Data Release (DR2) cosmological results with a particular focus on the measurement of BAO from Lyman-α forest. We measure the is...

DESI DR1 Full-Shape analysis: constraining cosmology and mitigating projection effects
Full-shape clustering measurements from DESI DR1 leverage information from the linear to quasi-nonlinear scales to deliver percent-level constraints on cosmological parameters. However, FS analyses relying on broad priors frequently suffer from projection effects, where marginalization over poorly constrained nuisance parameters can bias the inferred posteriors. To address this, we introduce ph...

NEXUS: A Spectroscopic Census of Broad-line AGNs and Little Red Dots at 3≲z≲6
In this talk, I will present analysis of a spectroscopic sample of 23 broad-line AGNs (BLAGNs) at 3≲z≲6 selected using F322W2+F444W NIRCam/WFSS grism spectroscopy of the central 100 arcmin2 area of the NEXUS survey. Among these BLAGNs, 15 are classified as Little Red Dots (LRDs) based on their rest-frame UV-optical spectral slopes and compact morphology. The number density of LRDs is ∼1e-5 c...

Galaxy growth from the early universe to cosmic noon
Over the past few years, JWST's exquisite sensitivity, wavelength coverage and resolution have dramatically advanced observational studies of distant galaxies. Ground-based facilities have added to this complementary views from wide-area imaging, integral-field spectroscopy and (sub)-mm probes. In this talk, I will share recent discoveries on rapidly maturing galaxies from the first billion yea...
