Active Galactic Nuclei, Primeval Galaxies and the Intergalactic Medium

Antonucci，Robert AST 96-17160 Antonucci博士将进行一些与活动星系核、原始星系和星系间介质性质有关的研究项目。第一组项目利用光学分光偏振法对隐藏的活动星系核进行观测。第二组描述了光学/UV和IR发射机制的一些测试。额外的项目将使用带有激光引导星的Lick自适应光学系统，试图探测电离的星系际介质，并寻找红移源。

Antonucci, Robert AST 96-17160 Dr. Antonucci will conduct a number of related research projects bearing on the nature of active galactic nuclei, primeval galaxies and the intergalactic medium. The first group of projects exploits observations with optical spectropolarimetry on hidden AGN. The second group describes some tests of optical/UV and IR emission mechanisms. The additional projects will use the Lick adaptive optics system with laser guide stars, attempts to detect the ionized intergalactic medium and a search for ultrahigh redshift sources.
