| Abstract : | Active galactic nuclei (AGN) are persistent luminous objects in the universe and they reside at the cores of a small fraction of galaxies. They radiate across the electromagnetic spectrum and a minority of AGN emit energetic relativistic particles in the form of collimated jets. This radiation as well as collimated jets from AGN interact with the surrounding environment, influencing and altering the properties of their host galaxies. Outflowing gas/particle from AGN has been detected on various scales, ranging from parsecs to kiloparsecs and, in some instances, extending to megaparsecs. Notably, these outflows exhibit a multiphase nature, comprising different states of matter. The specific origins of these multiphase outflows remain a subject of ongoing debate. Traditionally, it was believed that these outflows were predominantly associated with radio-loud AGN. However, recent observations have unveiled significant instances of outflows in radio-quiet and/or radio-undetected AGN. In this extensive study, we endeavour to systematically investigate the sources of these outflows in a sample of a few thousand AGN including both radio-loud and radio-quiet categories. We scrutinize the outflows in terms of their power and spatial extent as well as their correlations with various radio properties. Initial analyses suggest a higher incidence of outflow detection in radio-detected AGN. Intriguingly, we have also observed cases where outflowing gas is not close proximity to the AGN but instead exists at considerable distances. |
