This award funds one of the leading young observers, a specialist in spectropolarimetry, for studies of active galactic nuclei, quasars, and primeval galaxies. A variety of observational techniques will be used to probe the hidden cores of active galaxies and to detect just forming primeval galaxies at very high redshift. These efforts, if successful, will greatly extend our understanding of the extreme conditions in the hearts of radio sources and in the very early universe.

这一奖项资助了一位著名的年轻观察家，一位光谱偏振学专家，用于研究活动星系核、类星体和原始星系。各种观测技术将被用来探测活动星系的隐藏核心，并探测刚刚形成的红移非常高的原始星系。这些努力如果成功，将极大地扩大我们对射电源内心和宇宙早期极端条件的了解。
