Ultra-fast outflows (aka UFOs) from AGNs and QSOs (1301.7199v1)

Published 30 Jan 2013 in astro-ph.HE and astro-ph.CO

Abstract: During the last decade, strong observational evidence has been accumulated for the existence of massive, high velocity winds/outflows (aka Ultra Fast Outflows, UFOs) in nearby AGNs and in more distant quasars. Here we briefly review some of the most recent developments in this field and discuss the relevance of UFOs for both understanding the physics of accretion disk winds in AGNs, and for quantifying the global amount of AGN feedback on the surrounding medium.
