An X-ray/SDSS sample (I): multi-phase outflow incidence and dependence on AGN luminosity

Understand

Multi-phase fast, massive outflows have been postulated to play a crucial role in galaxy evolution.

• The aim of this work is to constrain the nature and the fraction of outflowing gas in AGNs, as well as the nuclear conditions possibly at the origin of such phenomena.
• We present a large spectroscopic sample of X-ray detected SDSS AGNs at z <0.8.
• X-ray and optical flux ratio diagnostics are used to select the sample.
