from the University of Bonn with work carried our in the Infrared Interferometry group at the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy.
[4] In 2010, Hönig received a DFG Fellowship and moved to the University of California, Santa Barbara working with Robert Antonucci.
During this time, he used VLTI observations of two Seyfert galaxies to show that dusty winds contribute significantly to the infrared radiation from these objects.
[5][6] Hönig received a Marie Skłodowska-Curie (2014) and an ERC Starting Grant (2015) at the University of Southampton to study this phenomenon in more detail.
[8] He is member of the Time Domain Extragalactic Survey (TiDES) using the 4MOST instrument at ESO's VISTA telescope and leads the AGN reverberation mapping sub-survey.
