One of the most fascinating discoveries in modern astrophysics has been the realization that all galaxies must harbor a gigantic black hole at their centers - and that these black holes can have a profound impact on their host galaxies. Accordingly, discerning the nature of this impact is a forefront topic of research in astrophysics. It is also the goal of this research program, which will be accomplished by utilizing an extensive sample of galaxies with black hole driven outflows. The program will inform our general understanding of black hole physics, as well as have bearing in extragalactic astrophysics and cosmology.

现代天体物理学中最令人着迷的发现之一是认识到所有星系的中心都必须有一个巨大的黑洞-这些黑洞可以对其宿主星系产生深远的影响。因此，辨别这种影响的性质是天体物理学研究的前沿课题。这也是这项研究计划的目标，这将通过利用大量具有黑洞驱动外流的星系样本来实现。该计划将告知我们对黑洞物理学的一般理解，以及对河外天体物理学和宇宙学的影响。
