Project description
Starting from observations by the Herschel satellite, a panchromatic dataset of Andromeda is constructed. Using Bayesian modelling it is possible to determine the underlying physical properties of each region in the galaxy. This project will search for interesting correlations between those properties and will verify if know large scale laws persist inside galaxies.
