Bridging the Disciplines of Galactic and Extra-galactic Archaeology
Elemental abundances in stars and ISM provide stringent constraints on galaxy formation and evolution. This has mostly been used to study our Galaxy through ``Galactic Archaeology''. Estimating elemental abundances within external galaxies is more challenging, but current and future observations (e.g. JWST) enable ``Extra-galactic Archaeology''. In this interdisciplinary session, we bring together all experts necessary for this quest, linking nuclear physics, stellar evolution, supernova physics, nucleosynthesis, Galactic chemical evolution, observations of early- and late-type galaxies, and cosmological simulations.
