Abstract

We present the first ever detection of Cobalt in a Damped Lyman Alpha system (DLA) at z ~ 2. In addition to providing important clues to the star formation history of these high redshift galaxies, we discuss how studying the Co abundance in DLAs may also help to constrain models of stellar nucleosynthesis in a regime not probed by Galactic stars.
