DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Divakara Mayya (Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica\,
  Óptica y Electrónica\, Puebla\, México)\n\nAbstractThe James Webb Spac
 e Telescope has unveiled a bubble-dominated morphology in nearby star-form
 ing galaxies\, giving them a new popular name of phantom galaxies. The unp
 recedented spatial resolution of the JWST and the filters it is equipped w
 ith allow the identification of millions of stars in these galaxies. We ha
 ve been analysing these datasets to address several interesting research p
 roblems\, such as understanding the origin of bubbles\, the details of mas
 sive star evolution\, and the determination of the metallicity of the olde
 st disk stars. The last of these studies provides an efficient novel metho
 d of exploring the formation epochs of disks in galaxies. In the colloquiu
 m\, I will give the current status of our studies in these fields. \n\nht
