Short presentation
Marianne fik sin PhD grad i astrofysik fra Niels Bohr Institutet i 1999 efter et længere forskningsophold ved Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics i Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. Siden har hun arbejdet ved Ohio State University, University of Arizona, og Tufts University i Medford, Massachusetts, alle i USA. I 2009 returnerede Marianne til Niels Bohr Institutet som Freja Fellow ved det Naturvidenskabelige Fakultet på Københavns Universitet.
Marianne forsker i fysikken af fjerne, unge galakser kaldet kvasarer. De udsender kraftigt stråling som skyldes at materiale falder ned på et supertungt sort hul i centret af galaksen. Marianne er specielt interesseret i at bestemme massen af de sorte huller og undersøge hvordan den kraftige energi-udsendelse fra den centrale aktive kerne i kvasarerne påvirker deres omgivelser. Marianne benytter et væld af teleskoper både i rummet og på Jorden, som er følsomme overfor dels røntgen, ultraviolet, visuelt, infrarød, sub-millimeter og radio stråling. På det seneste har hun benyttet data fra det store 'Very Large Telescope' ved det Europæiske Sydobservatorium i Chile, Atacama Pathfinder Experiment (APEX), Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA), Hubble Rumteleskop, og Swift røntgen og UV-optisk teleskop.
