Funded Activity Summary

How galaxies lose their gas: jet-driven outflows in the distant universe. This project aims to make measurements of the impact that powerful radio jets, launched from supermassive black holes at the heart of galaxies, have on their host galaxy. Understanding how galaxies evolve remains a key unanswered question in astronomy. The project will map the interaction between radio jets and the cold gas in galaxies to further distances than ever before, shedding light on how jets impact their environment at a crucial point in the lifecycle of radio galaxies. These results will challenge our understanding of how galaxies have evolved over the past 8 billion years and provide a much-needed observational basis to inform future simulations of galaxy evolution.
