Inhoud:

Developing several novel observational techniques, Harrison demonstrated that energetic winds driven by Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are found in a large number of galaxies, with properties in agreement with model predictions. Leading theoretical models predict that AGN drive energetic winds into galaxies, regulating the formation of stars.
