摘要:

Throughout the history of the universe, shocks and large-scale gas flows have moulded the arms of spiral galaxies, formed the bulges of the most massive galaxies in the universe, fed supermassive black holes in the centers of galaxies, fueled generation upon generation of new stars, and enriched the intergalactic medium with metals. For local galaxies, we use multi-object integral field spectroscopy to build the largest sample of galaxies with wide 3-dimensional imaging spectroscopy. We combine these results with insights into the early universe probed through gravitational lensing and near-infrared integral field spectroscopy. I will present the latest results from our large local and high-z 3D surveys to understand the relationship between gas inflows, galactic-scale outflows, star-formation, and active galactic nuclei in galaxies as a function of environment and redshift. I will finish by discussing how this field will be transformed with JWST and in the GMT/TMT era.
