The extragalactic astrophysics team focuses on multiple crucial research domains in galaxy formation and evolution. Our work encompasses computational galaxy modeling, observational analyses of star systems, interstellar matter, and active galactic nuclei, along with quasars as markers of cosmic large-scale structures. For simulations, we leverage both local and remote high-performance computing resources, while our observational studies employ data from diverse terrestrial telescopes and space-based observatories across all electromagnetic spectra. Conducted primarily at UCLan's Jeremiah Horrocks Institute and through ongoing collaborations with global research networks, we contribute to the international scientific pursuit of understanding galactic origins and structures - the fundamental components of our cosmos.
