SUMMARY:Early galaxy formation processes: clues from Near-Field Cosmology

CONTACT:Greg Willatt
DESCRIPTION:he formation of the first stars brought the infant Universe ou
 t of the dark ages and changed its chemical composition by producing the f
 irst heavy elements.  Metals\, dust and photons strongly affected the cool
 ing properties of the gas and thus the subsequent generations of stars and
  galaxies.  In the Local Group\, stars can be individually resolved\, prov
 iding us with the unique opportunity to indirectly study the interstellar 
 medium of high-redshift galaxies up to the era of reionization.\n\nIn this
  talk\, I will review the most recent findings for Local Group galaxies fr
 om both a theoretical and an observational perspective.  The implications 
 for the properties of the first stars and galaxies will be discussed\, and
  new ideas to connect Near- and Far-Field cosmology presented.\n
