Mapping a Quasar Outflow from Parsec to Kiloparsec Scales: A Combined HST Absorption and VLT Emission Investigation

Mayank Sharma, Travis C. Fischer, Manuela Bischetti +4

Linking nuclear winds to galactic-scale outflows remains a major observational challenge in understanding the multiscale physics of active galactic nuclei feedback. Here we present…

DESI survey of S IV absorption outflows in quasars: Contribution to AGN feedback and comparison with [O III] emission outflows

Mayank Sharma, Nahum Arav, Maryam Dehghanian +4

Quasar outflows can play a crucial role in the evolution of their host galaxies through various feedback processes. This effect is expected to be particularly important when the un…
