I have chosen to apply to The Open University for my PhD placement because you offer a unique opportunity in black hole studies, "The Life Cycles of Black-Hole Jets" (project A2), to study new data from the LOFAR Telescope. Being able to study this data would provide insight into black hole jet morphology, a research area by which I am very intrigued. Furthermore, your department offers the opportunity to collaborate with other researchers across Europe and visit LOFAR. This is something that I am also very keen to do. I believe that my masters project has prepared me well for this PhD project, as I have gained a solid understanding of active galactic nuclei (AGN) feedback, the process by which black hole jets heat their surroundings. I would now like to advance my knowledge by exploring the properties of the jets themselves, which is an opportunity that you offer. Outside of academia, I have developed professional skills that would also benefit this project. I am employed part-time as a Front of House Manager, this position has pushed me to develop my leadership, time management and organizational skills. I also have some experience coding in Python through my "Computing for Physical Sciences" module and data analysis conducted in my masters project.

我选择申请开放大学攻读博士学位，因为你们提供了一个独特的黑洞研究机会，“黑洞射流的生命周期”（项目A2），研究来自LOFAR望远镜的新数据。能够研究这些数据将提供对黑洞喷流形态的深入了解，这是一个我非常感兴趣的研究领域。此外，您的部门提供了与欧洲其他研究人员合作并访问LOFAR的机会。这也是我非常热衷于做的事情。我相信我的硕士项目已经为这个博士项目做好了充分的准备，因为我已经对活动星系核（AGN）反馈有了深入的了解，这是黑洞喷流加热周围环境的过程。我现在想通过探索喷气机本身的特性来增进我的知识，这是你提供的一个机会。在学术界之外，我已经开发了专业技能，这也将有利于这个项目。我是一名兼职前台经理，这个职位促使我发展了我的领导能力，时间管理和组织能力。我还通过我的“物理科学计算”模块和在我的硕士项目中进行的数据分析获得了一些Python编码经验。
