Giant radio galaxies provide important clues into the life cycles and triggering mechanisms of radio jets. With large-scale jets spanning 1.8 Mpc, ESO 422-G028 (z = 0.038) is a giant radio galaxy that also exhibits signs of restarted jet activity in the form of pc-scale jets. We present a study of the spatially resolved stellar and gas...

Local examples of jet-induced star formation lend valuable insight into its significance in galaxy evolution and can provide important observational constraints for theoretical models of positive feedback. Using optical integral field spectroscopy, we present an analysis of the ISM conditions in Minkowski's Object ($z = 0.0189$), a peculiar...

We present the first results from a JWST program studying the role played by powerful radio jets in the evolution of the most massive galaxies at the onset of cosmic noon. Using NIRSpec integral field spectroscopy, we detected 24 rest-frame optical emission lines from the z = 3.5892 radio galaxy 4C+19.71, which contains one of the most...
