معرفی
Marco Martorano is a doctoral student and Research Fellow at Ghent University's Faculty of Sciences, Department of Physics and Astronomy. His work focuses on galaxy evolution, cosmology, and observational astronomy, with a particular emphasis on reconciling simulations with multiwavelength observations from facilities like JWST and HST.
Research Interests: Martorano investigates galaxy structure, dust radiative transfer, and stellar population properties at cosmic noon (z∼2). His work addresses discrepancies between simulated and observed galaxy colors, size-mass relations, and photometry-spectroscopy consistency.
Article Trends: Recent publications highlight his contributions to near-IR galaxy photometry, Sérsic index evolution, and dust geometry modeling. He employs tools like Prospector for stellar property constraints and SKIRT for radiative transfer in simulations.
Collaborations: Martorano collaborates extensively with researchers at Ghent University, including Arjen van der Wel and Maarten Baes, working on projects like LEGA-C, IllustrisTNG, and TODDLERS emission libraries.
