Relativistic jets and radio-mode feedback in massive galaxies

澳大利亚在射电天文学新技术的开发方面处于世界领先地位。 我们将在澳大利亚望远镜上使用一种新的宽带相关器，以前所未有的速度和灵敏度绘制高频无线电天空。 这使我们能够探测和测量大质量星系中心黑洞的无线电发射。我们的目标是测试当前的星系形成理论，并提高我们对星系与其中心黑洞之间共生关系的理解。我们的工作将为现有和未来的低频无线电调查提供有力的补充，并将为未来利用平方公里阵列探索高频无线电宇宙铺平道路。

Australia is a world leader in the development of new technologies for radio astronomy. We will use a new wide-band correlator on the Australia Telescope to map the high-frequency radio sky with unprecedented speed and sensitivity. This allows us to detect and measure the radio emission from black holes at the centre of massive galaxies. Our aim is to test current theories of galaxy formation and improve our understanding of the symbiotic relationship between a galaxy and its central black hole. Our work will provide a powerful complement to existing and future low-frequency radio surveys, and will pave the way for future exploration of the high-frequency radio Universe with the Square Kilometre Array.
