Connecting outflows with radio emission in active galactic nuclei at cosmic noon

Gabriele S. Ilha, C. M. Harrison, V. Mainieri +17

AGN feedback is a well known mechanism in the evolution of galaxies. One open question is the driving mechanism of galaxy-scale outflows. At low redshift, radio jets often interact…
