galactic nuclei are supermassive black holes at the centers of galaxies,
that are actively accreting vast quantities of matter and producing
enormous energies. They provide unique laboratories for violent physical
processes like highly relativistic jets and turbulent accretion flows. A
thorough understanding of these objects and their profound effect on galaxy
evolution now depends upon synthesizing observations across many
wavelengths and understanding their time evolution. In particular,
high-resolution radio imaging surveys of outflows and star formation and
timing observations with breakthrough instruments like the Kepler and TESS
exoplanet-hunting missions have provided new exciting insights. In my talk,
I will discuss the my 22 GHz radio survey of jets and outflows from
accreting nuclear black holes and implications for galaxy-wide star
formation suppression. I will also discuss time domain results in accretion
physics and binary black holes from the Kepler and TESS active galaxy
samples, and the exciting range of new science expected from upcoming time
domain surveys.For more information, see the UT Dallas Comet Calendar
