PPT-Active Galaxies

Most of the power of galaxies come from the stars Almost all nearby galaxies Some galaxies have very bright sources right at the center Can be as bright as a galaxy Or even much brighter Called .

When you look into the hazy band of light across the sky, you are actually looking at our galaxy from the inside. While an awesome sight, you can only truly begin to see it if you get away from city lights on a moonless night. . With a wide-field multi-IFU spectrograph. Cluster studies. Clusters provide large samples of galaxies in a moderate field. Unique perspective on the interaction of galaxies with their environment. As they operate much as a closed box, they are useful as tracers of galaxy evolution and of cosmology. Li Jiang-Tao. 1. Service d’Astrophysique, CEA, Saclay, France. 2. . Department. of .
