معرفی
Marta Reina-Campos is a CITA Canada Fellow jointly appointed at the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics (CITA), University of Toronto, and McMaster University, with primary operational base at CITA's Toronto facility (60 St George St). Her research centers on leveraging star cluster populations as cosmological probes within hierarchical galaxy assembly frameworks.
Her work investigates the co-formation physics of star clusters and host galaxies across cosmic time, emphasizing constraints on massive cluster formation mechanisms and sub-grid modeling of star formation/feedback in galaxy simulations. She pioneers observational extensions using James Webb Space Telescope data to map ancient cluster populations in distant galaxy clusters, directly probing dark matter distributions through stellar kinematics.
Her scientific recognition includes:
- CITA Canada Fellowship
No student advisement details or research grant specifics are documented, though she co-organized the Fields Institute's 'Defining New Simulation Frontiers for Dark Matter Discovery' workshop. Her outreach includes TEDxUniHeidelberg presentations and Spanish Astronomical Society's 'Chat with a Female Astronomer' initiative since 2019.
