IUCAA Logo A National Workshop on
Galactic inflows and outflows on all Scales

(GALFLOWS 2023)

February 02 - 05, 2023, IUCAA, Pune
NCRA Logo

Inflows and outflows in and around galaxies are important drivers of their evolution. Both inflows and outflows occur across different scales; ranging from the nuclear region close to the supermassive blackholes to the intergalactic medium. Outflows are powered by different physical mechanisms, viz. nuclear starburst, AGN driven winds, relativistic jets. Such outflows leave their imprint on the galaxy and its environment to varying degrees, regulating the evolution of gas and metals in and around their host halos. Inflows also occur across scales from IGM filaments down to clouds condensing and infalling within the black hole sphere of influence. Some of the key questions of interest would be:

  • How such inflows and outflows occur and over what time scale?
  • How are the small and large scales related by these phenomena?
  • How do they affect the evolution of gas and stars in the galaxy over different times?
  • How do they influence the formation of stars?
  • What are the observational signatures of such events and how do they relate to theoretical models?

The workshop will bring together researchers in India working on these topics, including observers, theorists and simulators, to have a common platform to share their results. The workshop will be organised as an in-person meeting.
