With the successful launch of JWST, the "Galaxy Slice and Dice" research group is looking for graduate students to work on galaxy and cosmology-related programs. We are looking for up to 2 students to work primarily with Susan Kassin, an AURA Associate Astronomer with tenure, and 1 student to work primarily with Camilla Pacifici, a CSA Astronomer. Susan and Camilla have been close collaborators for nearly a decade. Our group is composed primarily observers, but work closely with theorists such as JHU postdoc Charlotte Welker.
We have a successful JWST Cycle 1 program to obtain the deepest spectra of high redshift galaxies, program 2123: JWST cycle 1 program 2123, "A Pathfinder for JWST Spectroscopy: Deep High Spectral Resolution Maps of Galaxies over 1<z<6" will obtain the deepest spectra of nascent galaxies with the NIRSpec spectrograph. We will obtain spectral maps of galaxies using a new technique. The program is explained in this talk by current graduate student Alex de la Vega using figures made by Alex and postdoc Charlotte Welker with much input from the group. And here is a good introductory video on the topic.."
Susan Kassin and the newly re-branded "Slice and Dice" research group are looking for graduate students to work on this program. Kassin is an AURA Associate Astronomer with tenure and a research scientist at JHU. Students will be involved in choosing the science (kinematics, outflows, metallicities, star-formation histories) which can cover observations and simulations. We .
Those of us in "Slice and Dice" are passionate about diversity efforts, and hope that our group is a welcoming and safe space for new ideas and scientific and technical development. We have close collaborators at the University of Arizona, UC Santa Cruz, and the Institut d'Astrophysique de Paris. We also have opportunities for outreach and undergraduate and high school mentoring.
