SUMMARY:A historical perspective on the concept of galaxy size 
DESCRIPTION:A historical perspective on the concept of galaxy size \nDr. Nu
 shkia Chamba\n\nIn  this seminar, we will explore how the development of i
 maging  techniques, from the use of photographic plates in the 1930s to cu
 rrent  CCD imaging, impacted the definition and measurement of galaxy size
 . We  then&nbsp;propose an alternative, new physically motivated size defi
 nition  based on the gas density threshold required for star formation tha
 t  challenges our current understanding of the concept of galaxy size. The
   new physically&nbsp;motivated size measure can be adopted in upcoming de
 ep,  wide imaging surveys such as the LSST and ongoing efforts in preparat
 ion  for this era will also be discussed.\n&nbsp;\nZoom:\nhttps://rediris.
