Seminarium Fizyki Wielkich Energii

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is the largest space telescope ever launched, and it will be a giant leap forward in our quest to understand the Universe and our origins. Delivery of the first scientific data in themid-2022 demonstrated unprecedented imaging and spectroscopic capabilities in the near to mid-infrared bands, with a sensitivity that is orders of magnitude higher than current facilities. Undoubtedly, in the years to come, JWST will open a huge, new discovery space in most areas of astronomy and astrophysics. In this seminar I will present the first results and big science questions that JWST observations are expected to answer. The particular emphasis will be given to the projects related to the galaxies in the early Universe.
