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. One of the key unsolved problems in astrophysics is understanding the influence of AGN, the sites of growing supermassive black holes, on the evolution of galaxies. Leading theoretical models predict that AGN drive energetic winds into galaxies, regulating the formation of stars. However, until now, we have lacked the decisive observational evidence to confirm or refute these key predictions. Careful selection of targets allowed Harrison, to reliably place these detailed observations into the context of the overall galaxy population. However, in disagreement with the model predictions, Harrison showed that AGN have little global effect on star formation in galaxies. Theoretical models are now left with the challenge of explaining these results. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aAstrophysics 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aCosmology 606 $aAstrophysics and Astroparticles$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22022 606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 606 $aCosmology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22049 615 0$aAstrophysics. 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 0$aCosmology. 615 14$aAstrophysics and Astroparticles. 615 24$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 615 24$aCosmology. 676 $a523.112 700 $aHarrison$b Christopher Mark$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0288817 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254618203321 996 $aObservational Constraints on the Influence of Active Galactic Nuclei on the Evolution of Galaxies$91811502 997 $aUNINA
