Description and Table of Contents
Description
These proceedings provide a summary of the state-of-the-art in the understanding of physical processes which control galaxy formation. Many topics are discussed which present the latest observational results: dust extinction, the role of AGNs in the formation of massive galaxies, etc. How future instruments such as NGST, ALMA, FIRST, KMT and SKAI can help to resolve these questions is also addressed. The book will serve as a useful reference in the field for many years to come.
Table of Contents
- Spectral energy distributions and emission mechanisms of nearby galaxies
- dynamics of nearby galaxies
- statistical properties of distant galaxies
- current and future instrumentation
- models and theory.
