Proud to have been part of Katherine's first PhD paper 👏👏 Her detailed study of a distant galaxy reveals what is likely an ongoing merger in a complex system containing both young and old stellar populations with new evidence for the presence of small carbonaceous grains – read more below!

Detection of the 2175Å UV Bump at z>7: Evidence for Rapid Dust Evolution in a Merging Reionisation-Era Galaxy
Dust is a fundamental component of the interstellar medium (ISM) within galaxies, as dust grains are highly efficient absorbers of UV and optical photons. Accurately quantifying this obscuration is cr...
