The lifecycle of powerful AGN outflows
During the course of this conference, much evidence was presented that points to an intimate connection between the energetic outflows driven by AGN and the energy budget and quite possibly also the evolution of their gaseous environments. However, it is still not clear if and how the AGN activity is triggered by the cooling gas, how long the activity lasts for and how these effects give rise t...
متن کاملAGN Outflows: Analysis of the Absorption Troughs
With the advent of Chandra and XMM, X-ray lines spectroscopy of AGN outflows is off to an exciting start. In this paper we illuminate some of the complications involved in extracting the outflow’s physical conditions (ionization equilibrium, total column density, chemical abundances) from such spectroscopic data. To do so we use the example provided by high-quality FUSE and HST observations of ...
متن کاملAgn Outflows and the Matter Power Spectrum
We have investigated the effects of AGN outflows on the amplitude of the matter power spectrum in a simple model of spherically symmetric outflows around realistically clustered AGN population. We find that two competing effects influence the matter power spectrum in two opposite directions. First, AGN outflows move baryons from high to low density regions, decreasing the amplitude of the matte...
متن کاملKiloparsec-scale outflows are prevalent among luminous AGN: outflows and feedback in the context of the overall AGN population
We present integral field unit observations covering the [O III]λλ4959, 5007 and Hβ emission lines of 16 z < 0.2 type 2 active galactic nuclei (AGN). Our targets are selected from a well-constrained parent sample of ≈24 000 AGN so that we can place our observations into the context of the overall AGN population. Our targets are radio quiet with star formation rates (SFRs; [10–100] M yr−1) that ...
متن کاملOutflows vs. Clouds in Agn Intrinsic Absorbers
We discuss the crucial role of a dynamical picture in the analysis of AGN intrinsic absorbers data. High quality FUSE data of Mrk 279 are used to demonstrate that the line of sight covering fraction is a strong function of velocity. In Mrk 279, as well as in most cases where the data is of high enough quality, the shape of the absorption troughs is mainly determined by the velocity-dependent co...
