Statistical Analysis of the First Galaxies

Summary: I led one of the first statistical analyses of the oldest galaxies observed by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). This was the first Bayesian likelihood analysis of this galaxy population using semi-analytic galaxy formation modeling. We made significant improvements in our likelihood modeling including goodness-of-fit tests (KS and $\chi^{2}$) not previously considered in the literature.

The paper is currently in the process of peer-review, but you can see the pre-print on arxiv for more details.
