Abstract

Theoretical models of galaxy evolution suggest that galaxy-wide outflows driven by active galactic nuclei (AGN), one of the so-called AGN-feedback mechanisms, are a fundamental process affecting the bulk of the baryons in the Universe. While the presence of such outflows out to kpc scales is now undisputed, their impact on the star formation, gas content and kinematics of the host galaxy is hotly debated. Here we report on the results from our Large Programme SUPER, which used the Spectrograph for INtegral Field Observations in the Near INfrared (SINFONI) on the Very Large Telescope (VLT) to carry out the first statistically sound high-spatialresolution investigation of AGN outflows at z ~ 2, covering four orders of magnitude in AGN bolometric luminosity.

宇宙正午的超级AGN反馈:一个多阶段和多尺度的挑战

星系演化的理论模型表明，由活动星系核(AGN)驱动的全星系范围的外流，即所谓的AGN反馈机制之一，是影响宇宙中大部分重子的基本过程。虽然这种kpc尺度的外流物的存在现在是无可争议的，但它们对恒星形成、气体含量和宿主星系运动学的影响仍在激烈争论中。在这里，我们报告了我们的大型项目SUPER的结果，该项目使用甚大望远镜(VLT)上的近红外积分场观测光谱仪(SINFONI)对z ~ 2的AGN流出进行了第一次统计上合理的高空间分辨率调查，覆盖了AGN的4个数量级的热光度。
