Research
Dr. Snedden studies the physics of active galactic nuclei. She is
especially interested in the structure and kinematics of the gas in the
Broad-Line Region, which is comparatively close to the supermassive
black holes in the cores of active galactic nuclei and sheds light on the
extreme conditions found there.
