Danial Langeroodi and Jens Hjorth from DARK, as part of a larger collaboration, lead the first ever inference of the correlation between mass and metal content of galaxies in the early Universe, when the Universe was 20 times younger than the present day. arxiv.org/pdf/2212.02491…

DARK PhD student Danial Langeroodi is leading new research with #JWST finding that galaxies at redshift ~8 (~650 million years after Big Bang) contained only one tenth of the ‘metals' (heavier elements, such as carbon, oxygen, silicon, iron) they contain today. 1/4 Science at VILLUM

Danial Langeroodi and Jens Hjorth from DARK (in collaboration with Zhoujian (ZJ) Zhang), have discovered three distant brown dwarfs in #JWST spectra. Brown dwarfs are self-radiating, cold, substellar objects that more closely resemble giant planets, like Jupiter, than typical stars.
